No Fry Apple Fritters

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits, separated and cut into 1-inch chunks
• 1 apple, peeled and chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans
• 1/2 cup butter, melted
• 3/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Mix white sugar and cinnamon together in a large resealable bag; add biscuits and seal. Shake bag until biscuits are coated in cinnamon-sugar.

Arrange half the apples and half the pecans in a round formation in an 8×8-inch pan; top with half the coated biscuits. Arrange half the remaining apples and pecans in a second layer and top with coated biscuits.

Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; dissolve brown sugar and vanilla extract in the melted butter. Pour butter-sugar mixture over biscuit mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are cooked through, about 35 minutes. Cool fritters in pan for 10 minutes before serving.
