These Apple Pie Biscuits have quickly become my go-to weekend breakfast—especially when family or friends stop by. Buttery, cinnamon-kissed, and filled with sweet apple goodness, they’re a cozy treat everyone loves. Whether served fresh from the oven in the morning or as an afternoon snack, they never last long.
What makes them special is their versatility—you can whip them up with simple store-bought ingredients or make everything from scratch when you want a homemade touch. The combination of flaky biscuits, warm apple filling, and a sweet glaze is pure comfort, no matter how you make them.

Spoon apple pie filling onto the tops of the biscuits, arranging evenly in the pan. - Bake
Drizzle any remaining butter over the biscuits. Bake for 32–35 minutes, or until golden and puffed. - Make the Glaze
