Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (16 oz) Refrigerated biscuit dough - 8 large biscuits or 16 smaller
  • 1 can (21 oz) Apple pie filling Drain excess liquid
  • ¼ cup Granulated sugar - For coating
  • 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon - Mix with sugar
  • 4 tablespoon Butter - Melted, for brushing
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract - Optional, adds flavor
  • Caramel sauce - Optional drizzle
  • Chopped pecans or walnuts - Optional add-in
  • Cream cheese Optional - Optional, for creamy filling

Equipment

  • 1 Baking sheet (Regular size fits about 8 bombs)
  • 1 Parchment Paper or Silicone Mat (Prevents sticking)
  • 1 Rolling pin or hands (To flatten biscuits)
  • 1 Pastry brush (For brushing melted butter)
  • 1 Small bowl (To mix cinnamon sugar)
  • 1 Microwave-safe bowl (For melting butter)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drain excess liquid from apple pie filling. Mix cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Melt butter for brushing later.
  2. Separate biscuits and flatten each into a round about 4–5 inches wide using your hands or a rolling pin. Don’t make them too thin or they’ll tear.
  3. Spoon one heaping tablespoon of apple pie filling into the center of each flattened biscuit.
  4. Pull edges of dough up around the filling, pinch tightly to close, and roll gently into a ball shape to make sure there are no gaps.
  5. Place sealed bombs seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them. Brush tops with melted butter.
  6. Bake 12–15 minutes until golden brown and puffed. Remove from oven when fully browned.
  7. While still hot, roll each bomb in the cinnamon sugar mixture so the coating sticks evenly.
  8. Let cool about 2 minutes before serving. Optional: drizzle with caramel sauce or serve with ice cream.
