Delightful and easy-to-make Air Fryer Apple Pie Bombs featuring flaky biscuit dough filled with sweet apple pie filling, perfectly air-fried to golden brown and coated with cinnamon sugar for a warm and crispy treat.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 2 cans Pillsbury Country biscuits (10 pieces per can) or 1 can of Grands biscuits

Filling

  • 1 cup roughly chopped apple pie filling

Topping

  • ½ cup melted butter
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: Open the biscuit cans and roll each biscuit into a 4-inch circle with a rolling pin. If using Grands biscuits, split each biscuit into two layers to create thinner dough circles for easier folding.
  2. Assemble the Bombs: Place 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling in the center of each dough circle. Pull the edges over the filling and pinch to seal tightly. Roll gently into a smooth ball shape to ensure filling does not leak. Place the apple pie bombs in the air fryer basket, spacing them about 1 inch apart. Cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
  3. Bake: Close the air fryer and set the temperature to 380°F (193°C). Air fry the bombs until golden brown and puffed, approximately 5-6 minutes per batch.
  4. Prepare the Topping: While the bombs are baking, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl, mixing thoroughly to create the cinnamon sugar coating.
  5. Continue Baking: Once the first batch is done, carefully transfer the baked apple pie bombs to a cooling rack. Repeat the baking process with any remaining bombs, maintaining the same temperature and time.
  6. Finish with Butter and Cinnamon Sugar: Dip each warm apple pie bomb into the melted butter to coat evenly, then roll it in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully covered. Place the coated bombs back on the cooling rack to set slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure the edges are well sealed to prevent filling leakage during cooking.
  • You can substitute apple pie filling with other pie fillings like cherry or blueberry for variety.
  • Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
  • These bombs are best enjoyed within a few hours but can be stored in an airtight container and reheated gently.
  • Adjust cooking time slightly depending on your air fryer model and size of the bombs.
