Description
Apple Pie Bombs bring the comforting flavors of classic apple pie into portable, bite-sized treats with a flaky exterior and a warm, gooey filling.
Ingredients
- 2 medium apples, peeled, cored, and diced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add diced apples, 1/3 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples begin to soften.
- Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to form a slurry. Add this to the apple mixture and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the filling thickens.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Separate the biscuit dough into individual biscuits and flatten each to about 1/4-inch thickness.
- Place a tablespoon of the apple filling in the center of each flattened biscuit. Fold the edges over the filling and pinch to seal completely.
- Dip each dough ball into the melted butter, then roll in a mixture of 1 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
- Place the coated dough balls seam-side down on the lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown and cooked through.
Notes
Use fresh apples like Granny Smith for a tart flavor. Adjust sugar based on your taste preference and consider adding spices like nutmeg for depth.
