🧂 Ingredients

For the Biscuits:

• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup cold butter, cubed
• ¾ cup milk

For the Apple Filling:

• 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Optional Glaze:

• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 1–2 tablespoons milk or cream

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the oven:
   • Set oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the biscuits:
   • In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in milk just until dough comes together.
3. Prepare the apple filling:
   • In a small bowl, toss diced apples with sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
4. Assemble the biscuits:
   • Roll out dough on a floured surface to about ½-inch thickness. Cut into circles using a biscuit cutter. Place a spoonful of apple filling in the center of half the circles, then top with the remaining dough circles. Press edges to seal.
5. Bake:
   • Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown.
6. Optional glaze:
   • Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla. Drizzle over warm biscuits before serving.
