Apple Pie Bombs (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 16.3-ounce can Grands 'Big' biscuits, flaky.
02 -
1 21-ounce can apple pie filling or caramel apple pie filling.
03 -
1 cup granulated sugar.
04 -
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon.
05 -
Vegetable oil for frying.
# Instructions:
01 -
In a shallow bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
02 -
Fill a 2 to 3-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan a little over halfway with vegetable oil to ensure the dough balls will be fully submerged while frying. Set aside.
03 -
Open the can of biscuits and split each biscuit in half by separating the flaky layers in the center. Flatten each biscuit piece slightly with fingers or a rolling pin.
04 -
Place 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling in the center of each dough circle.
05 -
Pinch the edges of the dough tightly to prevent it from opening during frying. Shape into balls.
06 -
Heat oil to 325°F, maintaining this temperature while frying.
07 -
Using a slotted spoon, carefully lower 2-3 dough balls at a time into the hot oil. Roll each around in the oil to ensure even cooking. Fry for approximately 5 minutes or until golden brown.
08 -
Once cooked, remove each pie bomb from the oil and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat. Set aside and repeat for all remaining dough balls.
09 -
Serve immediately.
