Ingredients
- 1 can Grand-style biscuits
- 1 cup cherry pie filling
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup cinnamon-sugar blend
Instructions
- Preheat Air Fryer or Oven: Preheat your air fryer to 330°F (165°C) or preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for cooking the pie bombs.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Slice each biscuit horizontally to open it up, then roll each piece into a 4-inch round to evenly encase the filling.
- Add Filling: Place about 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling in the center of each biscuit round, then carefully shape the dough around the filling into a ball to seal it inside.
- Coat with Butter and Cinnamon Sugar: Brush each dough ball with melted butter, then roll them in the cinnamon-sugar blend until fully coated for a sweet, flavorful crust.
- Cook Pie Bombs: Air fry the coated balls at 330°F for 6-7 minutes or bake in the oven at 375°F for 12-15 minutes until they turn golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- Serve Warm: Allow the cherry pie bombs to cool slightly, then serve warm to enjoy the melty cherry filling and crisp, cinnamon-sugar crust.
Notes
- You can substitute the cherry pie filling with your favorite fruit pie filling such as apple or blueberry.
- Ensure the biscuit dough is sealed well around the filling to prevent leaking during cooking.
- For an extra crispy coating, consider brushing with additional butter after the cinnamon sugar.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an indulgent dessert.
