What Type Of Apple Work Best In This Recipe?

The type of apples that work best are ones that are firm and dense, just like the apples I use in my Skillet Cinnamon Apples. I like to use Honeycrisp. I’ve also used Granny Smith apples, which have a slightly tart flavor. You can also mix the type of apples depending on what you have on hand.

Pro Tip #1: cook the apples until they are tender but not mushy. You want them to have a bit of a “bite” before layering them in the bread.

How To Make Apple Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread

This impressive-looking bread looks like it might be hard to make, but the opposite is true. There are four steps to making this recipe successful:

Make the apple filling by cooking the apples.
Slice the biscuits in half, lengthwise, fill with the cooked apple mixture, stack and place in a loaf pan.
Bake the pull-apart bread, then let cook.
Make the sweet vanilla glaze and drizzle over the bread.

As my ingredients started to cook, my house filled with warm, comforting smells. Once your bread comes out of the oven, and you’ve drizzled on the sweet vanilla glaze, you are ready to enjoy!

What Size Pan Is Recommended For This Recipe?

I use a metal 9×5 pan. You can use smaller pans, like the metal ones found in the grocery store, but you’ll need to divide the loaf in half.

Pro Tip #2: make sure that when stacking the loaf that each end has biscuits without filling touching the end of the pan.
