These Apple Pie Biscuits are a delightful twist on classic biscuits, combining flaky, buttery dough with a sweet and spiced apple pie filling. Topped with a smooth vanilla glaze, they make a perfect comforting treat for breakfast, dessert, or anytime snacking.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough

Filling

  • 1 cup apple pie filling (finely chopped)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract

Topping

  • 1 tbsp butter (melted, for brushing)

Glaze

  • 0.5 cup powdered sugar
  • 12 tbsp milk
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Filling: In a bowl, mix the finely chopped apple pie filling with brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Shape Biscuits: Flatten each refrigerated biscuit dough piece into a 4-inch circle using your hands or a rolling pin, lightly flouring your surface to prevent sticking.
  4. Fill Biscuits: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the prepared apple filling into the center of each biscuit circle. Fold the edges up and pinch them together tightly to seal the filling inside without overfilling.
  5. Prepare for Baking: Place each filled biscuit seam-side down on the lined baking sheet. Brush the tops lightly with melted butter to help achieve a golden and flaky crust.
  6. Bake: Bake the biscuits in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes until they turn golden brown and emit a fragrant apple and cinnamon aroma.
  7. Make Glaze: While the biscuits bake, whisk together powdered sugar, milk (start with 1 tablespoon and add more for desired consistency), and vanilla extract until smooth and drizzleable.
  8. Glaze and Serve: Remove biscuits from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Drizzle the vanilla glaze over the warm biscuits before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.

Notes

  • To prevent dough from sticking, dust your surface lightly with flour before flattening biscuits.
  • For a chunkier filling texture, chop the apple pie filling coarsely; for a smoother filling, chop finely.
  • The glaze can be adjusted in thickness by varying the amount of milk.
  • Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
  • To reheat, warm biscuits in a 350°F oven for 5–7 minutes.
