Here’s a recipe for Apple Pie Bombs, a sweet and easy dessert that’s perfect for satisfying your apple pie cravings in a bite-sized form. 💕🍎✨
Ingredients:
For the Apple Filling:
1 cup apple pie filling (store-bought or homemade), chopped into small pieces
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
For the Dough:
1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (like Pillsbury Grands)
For the Coating:
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Filling:
In a small bowl, combine the chopped apple pie filling and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
2. Prepare the Dough:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Separate the biscuit dough into individual rounds. Flatten each piece slightly with your hands or a rolling pin.
3. Fill and Seal:
Place a spoonful of the apple filling in the center of each dough round.
Fold the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching tightly to seal. Roll gently into a ball to ensure the filling stays inside.
4. Bake the Apple Pie Bombs:
Arrange the sealed dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the bombs are golden brown and puffed.
5. Coat the Bombs:
While the bombs are baking, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
Once baked, brush the warm bombs with melted butter, then roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
6. Serve:
Serve warm as-is, or with a drizzle of caramel sauce or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence.
Tips:
Homemade Apple Filling: Dice 1-2 apples and cook them with 1 tablespoon butter, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon until tender.
Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave for a fresh-out-of-the-oven taste.
Customization: Add chopped nuts, raisins, or a pinch of nutmeg to the filling for added texture and flavor.
Enjoy your delightful Apple Pie Bombs—a sweet, portable twist on the classic apple pie! 💕🍎
