Apple Pie Biscuits combine flaky, buttery buttermilk biscuits with a warm, cinnamon-spiced apple pie filling tucked inside each biscuit for a handheld version of classic apple pie. They bake up golden and puffy on the outside with soft, saucy apples in the center, making them perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a cozy dessert with ice cream.
Why these biscuits work
This recipe borrows from two comfort-food staples: traditional buttermilk biscuits and stovetop apple pie filling. The biscuit dough relies on cold butter and buttermilk for lift and flakiness, while the filling is thickened with cornstarch so it stays inside the biscuit instead of leaking out as it bakes, similar to other apple pie biscuit and skillet-apple-biscuit recipes.
