Dough and Filling
- 1 can buttermilk biscuits (typically 8 biscuits, 16 oz)
- 1 can apple pie filling (about 21 oz)
Toppings and Glaze
- ½ cup melted butter
- ½ cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp nutmeg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1 tbsp milk
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s ready when you’re done assembling the biscuits.
- Prepare Filling Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside for layering over the biscuits.
- Prepare Biscuits: Open the can of buttermilk biscuits and separate each biscuit. Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands or a rolling pin to create a small disc for filling.
- Fill Biscuits: Place a spoonful of apple pie filling onto the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold the biscuit edges over the filling and pinch to seal, forming a sealed packet.
- Arrange Biscuits: Place the filled biscuits evenly on a greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each.
- Brush with Butter and Sprinkle Sugar: Brush the tops of the biscuits generously with melted butter. Then sprinkle the cinnamon-brown sugar mixture evenly over each biscuit.
- Bake Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Prepare Glaze: While the biscuits bake, whisk together the confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth to create a drizzle glaze.
- Drizzle and Serve: Once the biscuits are done baking and slightly cooled, drizzle the glaze on top. Serve warm and enjoy!
