recipe for Apple Pie Biscuits:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1 tbsp lemon juice added)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup peeled and diced apples (about 1 medium apple)

For the Apple Pie Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. Cut in the butter: Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the cold butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs with pea-sized bits of butter.
  4. Add the liquid: Stir in the buttermilk and vanilla extract until just combined. The dough will be a bit sticky.
  5. Fold in the apples: Gently fold in the diced apples until evenly distributed in the dough.
  6. Shape the biscuits: Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it down into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Fold the dough over itself a few times to create layers, then cut the dough into 8-10 rounds using a biscuit cutter or a glass.
  7. Bake: Arrange the biscuits on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top.
  8. Prepare the glaze: While the biscuits bake, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  9. Glaze the biscuits: Once the biscuits are out of the oven, allow them to cool slightly, then drizzle the glaze over the warm biscuits.

Enjoy your delicious apple pie biscuits!
