Skillet Apple Pie Biscuits Recipe

Apples and cinnamon are a classic combination and these dessert biscuits are sure to become a family favorite. In this recipe, I share two methods.  The first method is for those moments when you're in a hurry, using a premium apple pie filling and frozen premade biscuits. It's for those busy morning or low fuss moments in life that we all have.

How to Make Easy Skillet Apple Pie Biscuits

• This Southern style apple pie biscuits recipe is meant to be simple using convenience items. That said, you know I've got many homemade biscuit recipes that you can make to replace the frozen biscuits. Checkout my recipes for Fluffy Southern Buttermilk Biscuits,  Easy Cream Biscuits or Easy Drop Biscuits. Either way, these biscuits are a delightful sweet treat when served at any time of day.
• When making apple pie biscuits using homemade biscuit dough, the bake time may need adjusting depending on the thickness of the biscuit dough.
• You can adapt this recipe using a tube of canned buttermilk biscuits.
• Can I make a homemade pie filling? Absolutely! In fact, during apple season and when time permits, I recommend that you make your own pie filling and I include my recipe for how to do that in the in the Cook's notes with the recipe.
• When cooking these biscuits in a cast iron skillet it's best to assemble and bake just before serving. That being said, you can assemble them in another type of deep dish pie pan or baking dish a couple of hours ahead of time, cover and keep chilled in the refrigerator. Allow the biscuits 15 minutes on the counter to warm prior to baking.
• If you like lots of glaze, the recipe will easily double.
• These biscuits can be baked and served for breakfast, brunch or dessert with a swoop of vanilla ice cream on top.
