Directions

1 Heat oven to 350°F. In 12-inch nonstick skillet, cook butter and caramel topping over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until melted and bubbly. Stir in brown sugar and apples. Cook over medium-high heat 12 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender.
2 Meanwhile, spray 8 (10-ounce) custard cups or 8 (12-ounce) ramekins with CRISCO® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon pecans in each cup. Spoon about 1/3 cup caramel-apple mixture evenly over pecans in each cup.
3 Separate biscuits; gently stretch each biscuit until large enough to cover caramel-apple mixture. Place biscuits on top of caramel-apple mixture in each cup. Place cups on large cookie sheet with sides.
4 Bake 18 to 23 minutes or until golden brown. Place cups on cooling rack; cool 5 minutes. Place heatproof serving plate upside down on each cup; carefully turn plate and cup over to remove cakes. Serve warm.

It seems there's no cinnamon in this recipe add cinnamon and other spices to it to give it flavor. If a recipe seems bland look to see what is missing if it needs spices add it but don't try it once and give up on it add something to make it better it's always about improving on something that can be made better. I did it with a recipe I found online instead of apples I used fresh pears and made a cobbler with them and in the recipe there was no cinnamon or ginger so I added it to the batter and poured it into the baking dish then I made a caramel type sauce to go over the pears I then added t

Delicious. I wasn't really sure if they were meant to be a breakfast item or a dessert; after tasting them, I realized they could be either! If you give it time to cool a little in the ramekin and then flip it, it will look as good as the picture. I know that because I ate two in one sitting.

It looks great and from the reviews I thought it would be great but, I wasn't really impressed. It was good but not great. I wouldn't recommend making. I felt like it needed something else it was a little bland for me.

I would like to try this recipe except to take the biscuits and cut each one into 6 pieces and toss with 2T melted margarine, 3-4T Sugar and 1t cinnamon. Then pile over the apple mixture.

I tend to modify recipes based on what I have in the fridge and pantry and what I know we like. Instead of 4 granny smiths, I had 1 red delicious. I had Pillsbury regular buttermilk canned bisuits. I added a little cinnamon to the caramel mixture. Since the regular bisuits are smaller than the Grands, I used two in each ramekin. (I made a little extra caramel mixture without the apples and poured it between the two layers of biscuits.) It was absolutely delicious!! My husband and sons absolutely loved it! :-) Thanks for such a great and easy recipe.
