Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can buttermilk biscuits
- 1 can apple pie filling
- 1/2 cup (113 grams) butter, melted
Sweeteners and Spices:
- 1/2 cup (100 grams) brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Icing:
- 1/2 cup (60 grams) confectioners’ sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Prepare the baking vessel by lightly coating a pan or skillet with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Create a fragrant spice mixture by combining brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg in a mixing bowl until well blended.
- Transform each biscuit by generously dipping it into melted butter, ensuring complete coverage, then thoroughly coat with the prepared spice blend.
- Enhance the apple pie filling by chopping it into smaller, more manageable pieces and stirring in vanilla extract for added depth of flavor.
- Strategically layer the modified apple pie filling over the butter-coated and spiced biscuits in the prepared pan.
- Distribute the remaining spice mixture evenly across the top and drizzle additional melted butter to create a rich, caramelized finish.
- Slide the assembled dish into a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and bake for 35 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
- While the biscuits are cooling, whisk confectioners’ sugar with milk to create a smooth, glossy icing.
- Generously drizzle the prepared icing over the warm biscuits, allowing it to cascade and settle into the delicious layers.
