Apple Pie Bombs

These tiny Apple Bombs pack a flavor punch! They're crunchy on the outside, gooey on the inside treats made by stuffing flaky biscuits with sweet, spiced apples, then deep-frying until crisp. After cooking, they get rolled in sweet cinnamon sugar that sticks to the hot dough. The combo of the crunchy coating and warm apple center makes them irresistible. They're super easy to make and perfect for gatherings, autumn celebrations, or just enjoying at home with family.

INGREDIENTS

• Flaky "Big" Grands biscuits: 1 (16.3 oz) can
• Can of apple pie filling: 1 (21 oz) can
• Vegetable oil: Enough for frying
• Ground cinnamon: 1 tbsp
• Granulated sugar: 1 cup

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1:

Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl for your coating. Put it aside for later.

Step 2:

Pour vegetable oil into a deep pot and warm it to 325°F (163°C). Make sure there's enough oil to fully submerge the dough balls.

Step 3:

Take each biscuit from the can and split them in half. Stretch each piece out flat with your hands or a rolling pin.

Step 4:

Drop about 1 tablespoon of apple filling in the middle of each flattened biscuit. Seal the edges by pinching them together, then shape into a ball.

Step 5:

Gently drop 2-3 balls into the hot oil using a slotted spoon. Cook for around 5 minutes, turning now and then until they're golden all over.

Step 6:

Take the cooked apple bombs out of the oil and right away roll them in your cinnamon sugar mix until completely covered.

Step 7:

Eat them while they're still warm. Want to make them even better? Add vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of caramel on top.

Serving and Storage Tips

• These tasty bombs taste best fresh from the fryer, but you can keep them in a sealed container at room temp for up to 2 days if needed.

Helpful Notes

• Don't forget to really pinch those edges shut or your filling will leak out during frying.

Tips from Well-Known Chefs

• Try coating the fried balls with melted butter before rolling them in cinnamon sugar for an extra rich flavor.

FAQs

Can I cook these in the oven instead?

Sure thing! Just pop them in a 350°F oven for 12-15 minutes until they're golden brown. They won't be quite as crispy but still tasty.

Is it okay to use my own apple filling?

Definitely! Making your own filling works great and you can adjust the spices just how you like them.
