Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold)
• 0.75 cups whole milk
• 1 medium granny smith apple (peeled, cored, and finely diced)
• 0.75 cups soft caramel candies
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Cut the cold butter into small cubes, and using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gently stir in the milk until the dough begins to come together, being careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the finely diced apple pieces and caramel candies evenly throughout the dough.

Step 6

Lightly flour a clean surface and transfer the dough onto it. Pat or roll the dough into a 1-inch thick circle.

Step 7

Using a 2.5-inch biscuit cutter (or a glass), cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet. Gather any dough scraps, re-roll, and continue cutting out biscuits.

Step 8

Brush the tops of the biscuits with heavy cream for a golden finish. If desired, sprinkle with a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.

Step 9

Bake the biscuits for 12–15 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the caramel is bubbling.

Step 10

Remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.

Step 11

Serve the Caramel Apple Biscuits warm and enjoy! Optionally, drizzle with additional caramel sauce for an extra indulgent treat.
