Use refrigerated biscuits to assemble Apple Cinnamon Turnovers in a jiffy. An easy filling made with chopped apple and applesauce tastes delicious when the craving for apple pie hits.

Try this for your apple filling instead...it keeps the bisuit dough from getting soggy....2/3 c. sugar, 1/3 c. all purpose flour, 1 Tbsp. cinnamon, pinch of salt, a dash of ground cloves. Mix this in a mixing bowl and place in the middle of the rolled out biscuit discs. Pinch the edges to seal them. Brush lightly with butter. Combine 1/2 tsp. cinnamon and 3 Tbsp of sugar and sprinkle it over the discs. Bake for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. See how that does for ya

Nice sweet breakfast treat using canned biscuits! Here are some hints: Unpeeled apple finely diced worked well. I rolled out one circle at a time, filled it, sealed it, then moved to the next circle--because the dough circles tended to shrink quickly after rolling. Make sure to secure the seal well, so the filling stays in as best as it can. I also added a light drizzle of a buttery confectioner's sugar glaze, once they emerged from the oven. The next time I'll cut the sugar (called for) in half, then add my glaze. That should be just the perfect amount of sweetness with the extra special touch of a wet glaze, too!
These are wonderful,although I goofed on the recipe. I didn't pay attention too well & instead of dividing the cinnamon, I added all of it to the apple mixture! Wow,it was really cinnamony! But,still very good. When I make these again,I would add just a touch of sugar to the filling,maybe 1 tsp. Also, I didn't have any biscuits so I used crescent rolls (pinched them together to make 4 rectangles & frosting on top..yum!Baked at 375 for 14 mins.
I made this using pie dough and it was just scrumptious!! The filling seems too good to be true... but it is PERFECT, we finished them the same night and I will make them over and over.
I made it and was surprised how well it turned out given the mixed reviews. I used what I had on hand, the extra buttery grand biscuits, and cinnamon flavored apple sauce. I thought it was tasty, I baked it on a baking stone, so it wasn't soggy, but nice and crispy on the outside. Next time I make it though, I will try it with a glaze instead of topping it with sugar before hand.
i tried this recipe first using some left over pie crust that i had and they were delicious...tried it the 2nd time with the biscuits and they were less of a hit. i think the pie crust is a bit better (think a healthier form of the mcdonald's version we all know and love) but the plate was empty nontheless...very good and VERY easy!
My family loves these turnovers! Even those who aren't big fans of refrigerated biscuits really liked them. They are so easy to make, and taste very good! I like to seal the turnovers with a fork instead of just pinching the edges; they look prettier and it is much easier!
I used the canned apple pie filling and my family couldn't get enough! My young daughter even enjoyed helping me make these! TY!
they were wonderful i loved how they looked and my parents loved how they tasted, but i made the apple sauce from scratch and it was just the perfect touch it made it taste more home cooked and made the flavors really blend well
Good, but missing something. In my opinion, this recipe needs to be tweaked for optimal flavor; however, provides the basis for a great recipe when tweaked.
Oh my goodness...this is yummy. I needed a recipe for easy apple cinnamon turnover. I, being from the South, fried mine instead of baked. I used Grand brand, flaky butter tastin' bisquits and actual split it in half and got two for the price of one..:) Be careful when frying though as they cook quick and can burn easily. Thanks for sharing this recipe. The filling was GREAT!!
Props for inventive treats using refrigerated biscuits ... but unfortunately not very flavorful because of them. I had no issues with undercooked or raw dough (it helps if apple mix is warm to hot when filling) nor leakage (use fork tines and really press to seal). My issues were with the dough; there was just too much of it and not enough sweetness in it. But.. just for fun, I did make apple pie/turnovers on a stick.
This was great!!! I had one apple left and my four year old had a friend over and I had to come up with something. I used croissants. They were delicious. EASY, EASY!!!
This was excellent. I used apples and pear with brown sugar cooked in crokpot for 4 hours as filling. The biscuits worked perfectly, and the sugar sprinkle was so yummy.
While the taste was good, the biscuit was soggy and the sides didn't pinch together well at all. Which seems to be the consensus on all the other reviews. I don't think I will use a biscuit the next time-it just didn't turn out well at all.
I give it 3 stars because it's easy to make and is pretty good. But it's not great. I'd say it'd be better to just serve biscuits with some fried apples. Easier and would taste better
This was quick and tasty; I may make them again the next time I have leftover pie crust to use.
Just okay, not great. We have had better recipes that use refrigerated biscuits and have more flavor. These were pretty easy to make, but won't be one that I will make again.
I was disappointed in these, they sounded wonderful but turned out a bit soggy. The cinnamon apples inside were delicious but the biscuits just didn't turn out for me.
This is very Sandra Lee Semi homemade. I thought this was a great recipe. I took it to a church potluck and it was a huge hit. People have asked me for the recipe and that I bring it every month. Thank you for a great quick and tasty recipe. The only thing I did different was to double everything.
I tried this recipe twice to take to different gatherings. The first time I used crescent rolls instead of biscuits and the second time I used pie crust. They were a big hit both times but I preferred the pie crust. I made double batches and didn't have any left both times. They were great finger foods for brunch and a picnic. The only other change I made was adding all the cinnamon to the apples and just sprinkling sugar on top. These were amazing and I will definitely make them again!
