Ingredients
Scale
- 2 apples, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 can (16.3 ounce) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 8 pieces caramel candy
- 2 tablespoon butter, melted
- Cinnamon sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Start by melting 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add the finely chopped apples, 2 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir the mixture occasionally and cook until the apples soften and the sugars start to caramelize, about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove from heat and let cool.
- While your apples are cooling, it’s time to preheat the oven to 375°F. This will ensure that your pie bombs bake evenly and turn golden brown.
- Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate it into individual biscuits. Gently flatten each biscuit with your hands or a rolling pin to create circles big enough to wrap around your filling.
- Take a spoonful of the cooled apple filling and place it in the center of each flattened biscuit. Top the filling with one piece of caramel candy. Once filled, fold the edges of the dough over the filling, pinching and sealing them securely to create a ball.
- Arrange your assembled pie bombs on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the top of each ball with 2 tablespoon melted butter for a delectable golden crust. For an added sweet touch, consider sprinkling some cinnamon sugar on top.
- Place your baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the pie bombs for about 12-15 minutes or until the biscuit dough is golden brown and fully cooked. Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
- Once they’re out of the oven, let the caramel apple pie bombs cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Ensure your biscuit dough is fresh for a softer texture.
Choose sweet and crisp apples, like Honeycrisp or Fuji, for maximum flavor.
Feel free to customize your filling with nuts like pecans or walnuts for a crunchy twist.
