This Apple Pie Pull Apart Bread combines flaky biscuit dough with tender spiced apples and caramel drizzle, baked into a pull-apart loaf that’s perfect for sharing. The layers of buttery biscuits, cinnamon-spiced apples, and crunchy pecans create a deliciously gooey and comforting dessert or breakfast treat.
Ingredients
Biscuits and Apple Mixture
- 1 8-count can refrigerated Pillsbury Grand biscuits
- 1 large red apple, cored and thinly sliced
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons apple pie spice (or ground cinnamon)
- ⅓ cup melted butter
Toppings
- ⅓ cup chopped pecans
- ⅓ cup caramel sauce
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray a bread loaf pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Butter and Spice: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and apple pie spice. Toss the thinly sliced apples in this mixture until they are evenly coated.
- Layer Biscuits: Pull apart the biscuit dough into 16 individual rounds. Arrange these biscuit rounds stacked horizontally in the prepared bread loaf pan.
- Add Apples and Pecans: Tuck the spiced apple slices between the biscuit layers throughout the pan. Spread any remaining butter and sugar mixture over the top, then sprinkle with chopped pecans for added texture and flavor.
- Bake: Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake uncovered for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the biscuits are fully cooked through and the top is golden brown.
- Drizzle Caramel and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and immediately drizzle caramel sauce over the top. Serve the bread warm and enjoy the gooey, flavorful pull-apart treat.
Notes
- Use a firm baking apple such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp for the best texture.
- You can substitute apple pie spice with ground cinnamon if desired.
- For a nut-free option, omit the pecans or replace with seeds.
- Make sure to serve warm to enjoy the gooey caramel and soft biscuit layers.
- Leftovers can be reheated gently in the microwave or oven.
