Cosori Dual Blaze Air Fryer – Digital Meat Thermometer – Air Fryer All Day
There is no need to melt butter, start a deep fryer, or heat an oven when you can use canned items and be finished in 10 minutes.
Here is what you will need:
Ingredients:
- biscuit dough
- apple pie filling
- cinnamon and sugar mixture
- butter
Instructions:
Open the biscuit dough and remove the biscuits from the container. Split the biscuits in half and separate the dough. Spread them out slightly with your hands or with a rolling pin.
Scoop a tablespoon of apple pie filling into the center of each circle of dough. Fold in the sides, and then cover with the other half of the dough, forming a ball.
Roll the dough to round out the ball, pinch the seams, and set aside. Continue making the rest of the apple pie bombs.
Combine the cinnamon and sugar mixture into a small bowl. Brush each pie bomb with butter and dip each dough ball into the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Add parchment paper to the bottom of the air fryer basket and the dough balls on top, seam-side down, in a single layer. Make sure to leave 2 inches between each one. You may have to cook these in two batches. If you don’t have parchment paper, you can also use cooking spray.
Add the basket to the air fryer and cook at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes, turning them about halfway through and then again for the last minute. Add an additional minute if needed.
Remove from the air fryer when they are fully cooked and a nice golden brown.
