Ingredients
Instructions
- Roll biscuits out flat, then put cooked apples into each one.

- Place the filled biscuits on a buttered pan.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 10 to 15 minutes until golden.
Tips & Substitutions
To enhance flavor, consider adding a touch of vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg to the apple mixture. If you prefer a healthier option, substitute the sugar with honey or maple syrup to taste. You can also use store-bought pie crust instead of biscuits for a flakier texture. For a fun twist, try adding raisins or chopped nuts to the filling.
Serving Suggestions
These quick baked apple pies are delightful served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. They pair beautifully with a cup of hot cider or coffee. For a festive touch, consider serving them alongside other treats like Petite Quiches or a slice of Mayfield Lemon Pie during gatherings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh apples instead of cooked apples?
Yes, you can use fresh apples, but they will need to be cooked first until soft. Simply peel, core, and slice the apples, then sauté them with sugar and apple pie spice in a pan until tender before filling the biscuits.
What should I do if my biscuits don't seal properly?
If your biscuits are not sealing well, you can brush the edges with a bit of water or beaten egg before pressing them together. This helps create a better seal. Additionally, ensure you're rolling them out evenly to prevent tearing.
Can I freeze the baked apple pies?
Absolutely! You can freeze the baked apple pies for up to two months. Allow them to cool completely, then wrap each pie tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before placing them in a freezer-safe bag. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.
