Ingredients

Scale

2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Coating: 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and add the diced apples, sugar, and cinnamon. Cook for 4-5 minutes until softened.
Mix cornstarch with water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir into the apple mixture and cook for another 1-2 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Flatten each biscuit from the can to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Place one tablespoon of cooled apple filling onto each flattened biscuit. Fold edges over to form balls and seal tightly.
Dip each ball in melted butter and roll in the sugar-cinnamon mixture before placing seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown.
