I think the title of this post says it all: apple pie biscuit bake. As a Southerner, there is nothing better than apple pie. Well, maybe other than biscuits. Combine them both and I’m in heaven! Not only is this a delicious dessert recipe, but it’s even great for a special breakfast. You can use either canned pie filling or fresh apples, it’s totally your preference!

If using fresh apples : Set your stove to medium temperature. Take your peeled and diced apples and cook them on the stove along with the lemon and sugar for about 20 minutes. Mix in the vanilla, and then set aside. Allow the apples to cool and thicken while preparing the biscuits.
In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Dip each biscuit into the mixture, front and back, and place into your pan. When finished, set aside the rest of your sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg mixture.
If using pie filling, Pour the filling into a bowl, slice up the apples into small pieces and mix in the vanilla extract. Spoon the filling all over the top of your biscuits.
