Apple Pie Biscuits Recipe
Ingredients
Biscuits:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 6 tbsp cold butter, cut into cubes
- ¾ cup milk
Apple Filling:
- 1 medium apple, peeled, cored, and diced
- 1 tbsp sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg (optional)
Topping (optional):
- 1 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp sugar + ¼ tsp cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the apples
- In a small bowl, mix diced apple, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside.
- Make the biscuit dough
- In a large bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in milk until a soft dough forms (don’t overmix).
- Shape biscuits
- Turn dough onto a floured surface and gently pat to about 1-inch thick.
- Cut into rounds with a biscuit cutter.
- Add apple filling
- Make a small indentation in each biscuit and spoon a little apple mixture in the center.
- Bake
- Place biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 12–15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Optional topping
- Brush warm biscuits with melted butter and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
Tips
- Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp so they don’t get too mushy.
- These are best eaten warm, fresh from the oven.
- You can also add a tiny drizzle of caramel or glaze for extra sweetness.
