Ingredients
  

For the Dough
  • 32 ounces Refrigerator Biscuits Consider using homemade dough for extra flavor.
  • ¾ cup Granulated Sugar You can reduce the amount for a less sweet final product.
  • 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon Pumpkin pie spice can be used for a seasonal twist.
For the Apple Filling
  • 2-3 medium Apples Freshness and flavor bursts; swap with pears for a delightful change.
  • cups Brown Sugar Offers a deep caramel sweetness; coconut sugar is a great alternative for lower glycemic options.
