Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 can (8-count) Pillsbury Grand biscuits (not flaky layers)
- 1 cup (262 g) blueberry pie filling (store-bought or homemade)
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions
- Prepare the biscuit dough: Separate the biscuits from the can and peel each biscuit apart into two layers, so you have 16 layers total. Pat each layer into a 4-inch circle.
- Add the filling: Spoon about 1 tablespoon of blueberry pie filling into the center of each biscuit circle.
- Form the pie bombs: Fold the sides of the dough around the filling, pinching to seal tightly and rolling each into a smooth ball.
- Apply butter and sugar: Brush both the tops and bottoms of each ball with the melted butter, then sprinkle each generously with granulated sugar.
- Prepare air fryer basket: Spray the basket of your air fryer with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Cook in the air fryer: Place the blueberry pie bombs in the air fryer basket about 2 inches apart to allow even circulation. Air fry at 330°F (165°C) for 7-8 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve warm: Remove from air fryer and serve the bombs warm for the best flavor and texture experience.
Notes
- You can use store-bought or homemade blueberry pie filling according to your preference.
- Make sure to seal the dough tightly around the filling to prevent leaks during cooking.
- These pie bombs are best enjoyed fresh and warm but can be reheated gently in the air fryer.
- Use a nonstick spray or brush the basket to avoid sticking.
- Adjust cooking time slightly based on your specific air fryer model.
