Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 (16.3 ounces / 462 grams) can Grands big biscuits, flaky
- 1 (21 ounces / 595 grams) can apple pie filling or caramel apple pie filling
Coating Ingredients:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Cooking Ingredient:
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Prepare the cinnamon sugar coating by thoroughly blending granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small mixing vessel. Reserve this mixture for later use.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot to 325F, ensuring sufficient depth to completely submerge the dough spheres during frying.
- Gently separate each refrigerated biscuit into two halves, then delicately flatten each piece using fingertips or a cylindrical rolling implement to create thin circular foundations.
- Position a precise dollop of apple pie filling directly in the center of each dough circle. Carefully pinch and fold the edges, seamlessly sealing the filling within, then tenderly shape into compact spherical forms.
- Utilizing a perforated spoon, methodically lower 2-3 dough spheres into the simmering oil. Rotate consistently for approximately 5 minutes, ensuring uniform golden-brown coloration across the entire surface.
- Immediately extract the crisp pie bombs from the hot oil using the slotted spoon, then promptly tumble them through the prepared cinnamon sugar mixture, guaranteeing complete and even coverage.
- For an elevated culinary experience, present the warm pie bombs accompanied by a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream or elegantly drizzle with rich caramel sauce before serving.
Notes
- Control oil temperature carefully to prevent burning and ensure even golden-brown exterior.
- Use room temperature apple pie filling to maintain consistent cooking time and prevent cold spots.
- Consider alternative fillings like peach or berry preserves for variety and different flavor profiles.
- Drain excess oil on paper towels to keep pie bombs crispy and prevent greasiness.
