Description
Air Fryer Apple Pie Bombs are biscuits filled with apple pie filling, cooked in an air fryer until golden brown, and covered in an apple pie spice and sugar coating.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
- 3 teaspoons apple pie spice
- 1 can (8-count) Pillsbury Grand biscuits, (not flaky layers)
- 1 cup (243 g) apple pie filling, (with apples cut into small pieces)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, (melted)
Instructions
- In a medium-size bowl, mix the sugar and apple pie spice. Set aside.
- Remove the biscuits from the can and peel to separate each into two layers. Press each layer of biscuit into a 4-inch circle. (You will have 16 circles.)
- In a small bowl, combine the apple pie filling with cinnamon. Mix to combine.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the apple pie filling and cinnamon mixture into the center of each circle.
- Use your fingers to fold the sides together, pinching to seal. Roll into balls.
- Spray the basket of an air fryer with nonstick cooking spray.
- Working in batches, place the balls into an air fryer basket about 2 inches apart. Spray the tops with cooking spray.
- Air fry at 350°F for 8-9 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Carefully remove the balls from the air fryer, dipping each in melted butter.
- Roll each dipped apple pie bomb into the apple pie spice and sugar mixture. Repeat with the remaining batches.
- Serve immediately or at room temperature.
Notes
These apple pie bombs can be frozen after cooking. To reheat from frozen, air fry at 350°F for 3-4 minutes until warmed through. For best results, use non-flaky biscuits as they separate into layers more easily. The sugar coating provides a sweet, crispy exterior that complements the warm apple filling.
