Ingredients

Scale

Apple Filling

  • 2 apples, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Assembly

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 8 pieces caramel candy
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • Cinnamon sugar (optional, for sprinkling)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Apple Filling: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a medium baking dish with cooking spray. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Add the peeled and finely chopped apples, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and the mixture is bubbling, about 5 minutes. Set the apple filling aside to cool slightly.
  2. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Remove the refrigerated biscuit dough from the can and separate the biscuits. Slightly stretch each biscuit, then flatten each one using your fingers, a rolling pin, or a tortilla press until thin and even rounds are formed. Be gentle to avoid tearing the dough.
  3. Assemble Pie Bombs: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the prepared apple filling into the center of each flattened biscuit. Place one piece of caramel candy on top of the apple filling. Carefully bring the edges of the dough up around the filling and pinch tightly to seal completely. Gently roll each sealed biscuit into a ball shape.
  4. Prepare for Baking: Place each filled dough ball seam side down into the greased baking dish. Brush the tops with melted butter to promote a golden crust. Optionally, sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the tops for extra flavor and aroma.
  5. Bake: Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the dough balls are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before carefully transferring to a serving platter.
  6. Serve: Serve the caramel apple pie bombs warm. For an indulgent touch, drizzle with caramel sauce or add a scoop of vanilla ice cream alongside.

Notes

  • Ensure sealing the dough edges tightly to prevent caramel from leaking during baking.
  • You can substitute caramel candies with caramel sauce, but be mindful of potential leakage.
  • For extra crispiness, brush additional melted butter halfway through baking.
  • These can be served as a fun party appetizer or a comforting dessert.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in a low oven or air fryer for a crisp texture refresh.
