Ingredients
2 cans of refrigerated biscuit dough (e.g., Grands)
2 cups of diced apples (fresh or canned)
1/2 cup of granulated sugar
1 tsp of ground cinnamon
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1/2 cup of butter, melted
1 tsp of vanilla extract (optional)
Directions
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
Prepare the Apples:
In a bowl, combine the diced apples, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
Prepare the Biscuit Dough:
Open the cans of biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters.
Layer the Ingredients:
In the greased baking dish, spread half of the biscuit pieces evenly across the bottom.
Pour half of the apple mixture over the biscuit pieces.
Repeat with the remaining biscuit pieces and apple mixture.
In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and vanilla extract (if using). Pour this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the apples are tender.
Method of Storage
To keep your Apple Bubble Up Casserole fresh and delicious, follow these storage guidelines:
Storage Instructions
Cooling:
Allow the casserole to cool completely in the baking dish at room temperature. This prevents moisture buildup and keeps the texture intact.
Airtight Container:
Once cooled, transfer any leftovers to an airtight container. If you prefer, you can cover the baking dish tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Refrigeration:
Store the casserole in the refrigerator. It will stay fresh for 3-5 days when properly stored.
Freezing (Optional):
For longer storage, you can freeze the casserole. Cut it into individual portions and wrap each piece in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container.
Frozen casserole can last for up to 2-3 months. Be sure to label the containers with the date for easy reference.
Reheating Tips
Thawing: If frozen, thaw the casserole in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
Microwave: Reheat individual portions in the microwave for about 30-60 seconds, or until warmed through.
Oven: You can also reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, covering with foil to prevent drying out.
Enjoying Leftovers
Serve the reheated casserole with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, or a sprinkle of powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness!
