Apple Pie Biscuits Tips

Here are a few tips to help you make the perfect Apple Pie Biscuits:

• Use a good quality apple for the filling. I like to use Granny Smith apples because they’re tart and have a firm texture. But you can use any type of apple that you like. Just make sure it’s a good-quality apple so that your filling is delicious!
• If you don’t have fresh lemon juice, you can use bottled lemon juice. It will work just fine.
• These biscuits are best served warm, so be sure to reheat them before serving if necessary. A quick blast in the microwave should do the trick!
• These Apple Pie Biscuits are best enjoyed the day they are made. But if you have any leftovers, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Apple Pie Biscuits Variations

There are so many ways that you can vary this recipe to make it your own. Here are a few of my favorite ways:

• Use a different type of apple. As I mentioned, I love using Granny Smith apples in this recipe because they’re tart and have a firm texture. But you could also use Honeycrisp apples, Golden Delicious apples, or even Braeburn apples. Just use whatever type of apple you like best!
• Make a streusel topping. If you want to take these Apple Pie Biscuits over the top, try adding a streusel topping before baking. Just mix together some flour, sugar, butter, and cinnamon and sprinkle it over the top of the biscuits. So good!
• Add a glaze. If you want your Apple Pie Biscuits to be extra special, try adding a simple glaze after they’re baked. Just mix together some powdered sugar and milk and drizzle it over the top of the biscuits. Yum!

What kind of apples should I use for this recipe? 

This recipe is super forgiving, and a variety of apples will go great in it. Our favorite is, hands down, Granny Smith; however, you could also use Golden Delicious, Honeycrisp, Gala, Fuji, or Braeburn.

Can I use canned pie filling? 

Sure! I prefer using fresh apples and making the filling myself, but in a pinch, you can use a can of apple pie filling. It will work well, and it’s flavored beautifully too.

Do I need light brown sugar or dark brown sugar? 

You could actually use either dark or light brown sugar for this recipe. When you use dark brown sugar in any baked recipe, it is going to give the dish a robust flavor. While light brown sugar has a lighter flavor and is more subtle.

How do you store the leftovers? 

Keep in mind that these skillet biscuits are best when eaten right away. If you do end up with leftovers, let them cool and refrigerate for 1-2 days. They should be stored in an airtight container.

Can you freeze apple pie biscuit bake? 

Sure! Be sure they are wrapped tightly and frozen in a food-safe container. They will last for about a month. Thaw before eating. Keep in mind that the texture will change slightly after being frozen, so they won’t be as good as when they are first cooked.

Can you use frozen biscuits for this recipe? 

No, it’s best not to use frozen biscuits for this recipe. The result just won’t be the same, so it’s better to follow the recipe.

Can you make this dessert in the air fryer?

Yes, anything you can cook in the oven can be made in the air fryer. You’ll just need to use ramekins or a small pan that is small enough to fit in your air fryer. You’ll also need to lower the heat by 25 degrees and shorten the cooking time.

Serving Suggestion

Serve with a glaze drizzled on top or sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. It’s also a great dish for breakfast or brunch!
