-
2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough (homestyle or buttermilk)
-
2 cans (21 oz each) apple pie filling
-
½ cup granulated sugar
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
-
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
Optional Glaze
-
1 cup powdered sugar
-
2–3 tablespoons milk
-
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or nonstick spray.
Step 2: Cut the Biscuit Dough
Open the biscuit cans and cut each biscuit into quarters. Place the biscuit pieces evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Step 3: Add the Apple Filling
Spoon the apple pie filling over the biscuit pieces. Gently spread to distribute apples evenly, but do not stir aggressively.
Step 4: Add Sugar, Spice, and Butter
In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle evenly over the apples and biscuits. Drizzle melted butter over the top.
Step 5: Bake Until Bubbly
Bake uncovered for 40–45 minutes, or until biscuits are cooked through and the top is golden and bubbling. Let rest for 10 minutes before glazing.
Notes
-
Use homestyle biscuits for best texture.
-
If the top browns too quickly, tent loosely with foil.
-
Let rest before serving so the sauce thickens slightly.
-
Check center biscuits to ensure they’re fully baked.
