Ingredients
- ¾ cup granulated sugar (150g)
- 3 tsp apple pie spice
- 1 can Pillsbury Grand biscuits (8 count)
- 1 cup finely chopped apple pie filling (243g)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted (1 stick / 113g)
Instructions
Mix the Sweet Stuff:
In a bowl, combine the sugar and apple pie spice. Set aside for rolling later.
Prep the Biscuits:
Pop open the can of biscuits and gently pull each biscuit apart into two thinner layers. Flatten each layer into a 4-inch circle, giving you 16 pieces.
Make the Filling:
In a small bowl, mix the chopped apple pie filling with cinnamon until well combined.
Assemble the Bombs:
Spoon about a tablespoon of the filling onto the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges closed. Roll each into a smooth ball.
Air Fry to Perfection:
Spray your air fryer basket with nonstick spray. Arrange the bombs inside, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Lightly spray the tops. Air fry at 350°F (177°C) for 8–9 minutes or until golden brown.
Coat in Sweetness:
Once the bombs are cooked and still warm, dip each one into melted butter and then roll in the sugar-spice mixture until evenly coated.
Tips for Perfect Air Fryer Apple Pie Bombs:
- Don’t overfill the bombs to prevent bursting.
- Ensure the bombs are sealed tightly to keep the filling from leaking.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and taste.
