Directions
Preheat oven to 350 and grease a small baking pan. We used a 7x11. Spread apple pie filling into the bottom of the pan and sprinkle with half of the biscuits. Set aside.
Mix together butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and vanilla in a medium mixing bowl.
Pour the completed mixture on top of the biscuits in the baking dish. Add the remaining biscuits and sprinkle generously with pecans. Seriously, this is one of the best parts!
Bake for 30-35 minutes or until center is set. Let stand for 5 minutes and serve warm.

This is maybe the most attractive breakfast bake I've ever seen. And, to state the obvious, it looks insanely delicious! Gotta try it!
Lani Young says
I made it and everyone loved it! I thought that it needed more apple pie filling.
The next time, I will add more pie filling to see how it is.
I also replaced the pecans with walnuts, almonds and cherries.
Jennifer says
That sounds delicious! I might add more apple pie filling the next time and see how I like it, that's a great idea!
Holly Knowles says
How about indicating SIZE of baking dish instead of just saying "small baking dish"...H
Jennifer says
Great suggestion, thank you! We used a 7x11 casserole dish!
