Indulge in the cozy flavors of fall with these delightful Baked Biscuit Filled Apples—a creative twist on traditional baked apples! This easy-to-make recipe features large apples like Honeycrisp or Granny Smith, hollowed out and filled with gooey, cinnamon-kissed biscuit dough. Each apple is baked to tender perfection, with buttery caramelized notes and an optional drizzle of maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness. With just 15 minutes of prep time, these baked apples make the perfect warm dessert or seasonal treat, especially when served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Whether you're craving a comforting dessert or an elegant addition to your autumn menu, this recipe is sure to impress.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash and dry the apples. Cut off the tops and scoop out the core and some of the flesh, leaving about 1/2 inch of apple flesh around the edges to create a hollow cavity. Be careful not to puncture the bottom of the apple.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Set aside.
Flatten a piece of biscuit dough slightly with your hands and place a small pinch of the brown sugar mixture in the center. Fold and pinch the dough closed around the sugar mixture to form a small ball.
Repeat with the remaining biscuit dough and brown sugar mixture until all dough pieces are filled.
Stuff each hollowed-out apple with 1 to 2 prepared dough balls, depending on the size of the cavity.
Place the filled apples in a baking dish. Add the water to the bottom of the dish to help steam the apples as they bake.
Dot the tops of the stuffed apples with small pats of butter (divide the 2 tablespoons evenly among the apples). If desired, drizzle 1 teaspoon of maple syrup over each apple for added sweetness.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the biscuit filling is golden brown.
Let the apples cool slightly before serving. Serve as-is or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat!
