My kids set up an assembly line when making these snacks—one chops the apples and mixes the filling, one rolls out the biscuits, and one puts the pies together. —Marsha Dingbaum, Aurora, California

Ingredients

1 tube (12 ounces) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 medium tart apple, peeled and finely chopped

So easy and so yummy! Perfect for small hands to eat. I suspect that these will freeze well and can be reheated in a low oven for a few minutes.

These were very good. Next time, I'm going to chop the apples a little less fine, and add chopped walnuts. Also, I'm going to flatten out the biscuits more so I can have more filling in each pie. They were easy to eat!

these are very good. I lightly sprayed the pan with Pam. and prayed a bit more on top of the pies before putting in the oven. also I couldn't fit a whole apple in them. will definitely make them again.

This was simple enough for our Special Needs students at school to make and fun for them to serve their teachers. Of course they ate it as well! They had a trip to the apple farm and used the apples they picked to make the recipe. The kids enjoyed the experience and everyone enjoyed the taste.

I substituted chopped Craisins one time and dried currants another time for the raisins. Both were tasty. I only had 7.5 oz tubes of biscuits on hand, so I made stacks of two and flattened them. That worked fine. I was a little worried when they wouldn't stay pinched shut in the pan, but they baked fine, sort of like cutting vent slits in a regular pie crust. A little spray of Pam in the pan wouldn't hurt. Let cool completely before removing from pan. They're not too messy to eat with your fingers or put in a lunch box.
