Caramel Apple Pie Bombs are delicious bite-sized treats combining soft, buttery biscuit dough filled with warm cinnamon-spiced apple filling and gooey caramel centers. Perfect as a cozy fall dessert or an indulgent snack, these easy-to-make bombs are brushed with melted butter and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar for extra flavor and crispiness.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Bombs:

  • 1 (16.3-oz) can refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 8 caramel candies
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 apples, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt

For Topping:

  • Cinnamon sugar, optional

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a medium baking dish thoroughly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Make the Apple Pie Filling: In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the finely chopped apples, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the apples are tender and fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and carefully separate the biscuits. Slightly stretch each biscuit dough circle to make it easier to wrap around the filling.
  4. Assemble the Bombs: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the prepared apple filling into the center of each stretched biscuit dough. Place one caramel candy directly on top of the apple filling in each biscuit.
  5. Seal the Bombs: Carefully pinch the edges of the biscuit dough together to enclose the filling and caramel completely. Then gently roll the sealed dough ball between your hands to smooth it and form a neat ball shape.
  6. Prepare for Baking: Place the formed balls into the greased baking dish. Brush the tops generously with the 2 tablespoons of melted butter. If using, sprinkle cinnamon sugar on top of each bomb for added sweetness and texture.
  7. Bake: Bake the caramel apple pie bombs in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Serve: Remove the bombs from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Let them cool slightly before serving to avoid burns from the hot caramel center.

Notes

  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a balanced sweetness.
  • Make sure the caramel candies are at room temperature for easier melting inside the bombs.
  • Brush with extra butter if you prefer a richer crust.
  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra indulgent dessert.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat before serving.
