Description:
If you love apple pie but want something quick, easy, and extra fun, these Apple Pie Bombs are for you! Each bite-sized delight is filled with warm, cinnamon-spiced apple filling, wrapped in golden, flaky dough, and coated in a sweet cinnamon-sugar mixture. Perfect for a cozy dessert, snack, or party treat!
Ingredients:
- 1 (8-count) can refrigerated biscuit dough (like Pillsbury Grands)
- 1 cup apple pie filling, diced into small pieces
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/4 cup brown sugar (optional, for extra caramel flavor)
- Caramel sauce for drizzling (optional)
Instructions:
Step 1: Prep the Ingredients
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin or baking sheet.
- Dice the apple pie filling into small chunks for easier filling.
Step 2: Fill & Seal the Bombs
- Flatten each biscuit dough piece into a round circle.
- Place about 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling in the center of each dough piece.
- Fold the edges of the dough up and pinch them together to seal, forming a ball.
- Place the sealed side down in the muffin tin or on a baking sheet.
Step 3: Bake to Golden Perfection
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While they bake, mix the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
Step 4: Coat & Serve
- Once out of the oven, brush each apple pie bomb with melted butter and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- For extra indulgence, drizzle with caramel sauce or dust with powdered sugar.
