Bet--are you sure we aren't related? Multiply this to a dish for 6 or so and you are talking about what my mom used to call Apple Grunt. Only, a grunt isn't baked but steamed. She tried it like that when first married, hated it, and started baking it thereafter. So we always called it Apple Grunt although it's really apple cobbler to anyone else.
I have the apples and I have biscuits in the freezer. It's calling to me!

Birdy, I just love to experiment. It was good but could have used a little more apple for the amount of the biscuit. Of course it wasn't as flaky as the biscuit just backed as it absorbed some of the juice from the apple and sugar so it was a little heavier. However, I can see this frozen dough baking up just fine for biscuits.

Good to know. I'm assuming you used it still frozen? Perhaps if it was quick-thawed in the microwave first? My mom's biscuit topping was made in one sheet and her biscuits were, shall we say, a bit more sturdy. She never used a recipe. But when baked, the biscuit crust was soaked with juice a little on the bottom but not terribly soggy. I don't think she baked it in an oven that hot. I wonder if the apples were baked uncovered first until almost tender and then the biscuit was put on top and baked. I checked the Pillsbury site--they have a cobber recipe using the refrigerated biscuits. They cooked the filling first on the stove which is more work than I would go to for one serving, so the pre-bake might be the way to go. They cut the biscuits into pieces and tossed them with cinnamon, sugar, and a few other additions before putting them on top of the filling. It was baked with the biscuits on top at 375F.

I precooked the apples and sugar on the stove. The biscuit wasn't soggy but what I would call heavy. I actually used my regular cobbler recipe but didn't make the topping rather just put the frozen biscuit on top. It the biscuit were thawed it would definitely take less time to bake. Need to read those instructions for thawing them again.

Oops--missed that filling was cooked. I know my mom never did--she didn't have the patience! LOL!
I think this could be fun to tinker with.

I plan to keep trying as I have a bag of apples in the refrigerator that I have had since I was making breads for gifts at Christmas time and I need to use them up. You saw the picture how high the biscuit rose. The frozen dough is about 1/2" thick.
Time to go play in the dirt. These seeds aren't going to plant themselves.
