Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 2 cups diced apples (preferably Granny Smith or Fuji)

Dough & Topping

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish thoroughly and set it aside to prepare for the casserole assembly.
  2. Mix the Apples and Dough. In a large bowl, combine the diced apples, pieces of biscuit dough, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Stir gently until the dough and apples are well coated with the sugar and spice mixture.
  3. Layer the Casserole. Pour the apple and dough mixture into the prepared baking dish evenly. Drizzle the melted butter over the top, then sprinkle brown sugar and chopped pecans uniformly across the surface.
  4. Bake. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until the biscuit dough is cooked through and the top is golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the texture to set.

Notes

  • For a more robust flavor, use a mix of different apple varieties such as Granny Smith and Fuji.
  • Ensure biscuit dough pieces are evenly distributed to promote consistent baking.
  • Drizzle caramel sauce over the casserole before serving for a gooey, indulgent texture.
  • Add a sprinkle of turbinado sugar on top before baking for a crisp, crunchy topping.
  • Use freshly grated nutmeg to enhance the warm spice profile.
  • Let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes after baking to improve texture and flavor integration.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently in the oven at 300°F (150°C).
