FAQs

What is "bubble up"?

"Bubble up" refers to the way biscuit pieces puff and "bubble" as they bake, creating a fluffy, caramelized texture that pairs perfectly with the filling.

Can I use homemade pie filling?

Absolutely! Homemade apple pie filling adds a personal touch. Just make sure it’s not too runny to avoid soggy biscuits.

How do I prevent the biscuits from being undercooked?

Make sure the dish is baked long enough (usually 35–40 minutes at 350°F) and the top is golden brown. If the top is browning too quickly, cover loosely with foil and bake until the biscuits are cooked through.

Can I add extra toppings?

Totally! Drizzle with caramel sauce, sprinkle with chopped nuts, or top with vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.

💭 Top Tips

Cut your canned biscuits into quarters or smaller pieces for even baking and perfect bites of fluffy, caramelized goodness.
Layer the biscuit pieces evenly across the dish and coat them well with the filling. Every bite will be packed with flavor.
Bake until the top is golden brown, and check that the biscuits are cooked through. If the top is browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil for the last 10 minutes.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave to revive the gooey goodness.

📖 How to make Apple Pie Bubble Up

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking pan.
In a large bowl, mix the apple pie filling, apple pie spice or ground cinnamon, salt, melted butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract.
Cut the biscuits into 6-8 pieces each. Add biscuit pieces to the bowl with the filling and gently toss until evenly coated.
Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown. Check for doneness—if the biscuits are browning too quickly on top, cover with foil for the last 10 minutes.
In a small bowl combine powdered sugar with milk until smooth. Allow to rest for 10-15 minutes, then drizzle the glaze over top. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. Enjoy!
