These Apple Pie Biscuits are the perfect combination of warm, flaky biscuits and sweet, spiced apple pie filling. Coated in cinnamon-sugar and baked until golden, these biscuits taste like a cross between a classic apple pie and a pull-apart monkey bread. Finished with a drizzle of simple icing, they make a delicious breakfast treat or a cozy dessert for any occasion.
What makes this recipe special is its simplicity—using store-bought buttermilk biscuits and canned apple pie filling cuts down on prep time while still delivering homemade flavor. The brown sugar and cinnamon caramelize beautifully in the oven, creating a rich, buttery glaze. Serve these biscuits warm for a gooey, comforting bite that pairs perfectly with coffee or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
