Here is what you will need:
Ingredients:
- biscuit dough
- apple pie filling
- cinnamon and sugar mixture
Instructions:
- Open the biscuit dough and remove the biscuits from the container. Split the biscuits in half and separate dough. Spread them out slightly with your hands or with a rolling pin.
- Open the apple pie filling and scoop a tablespoon of apple pie filling into the center of each circle. Fold in the sides, and then cover with the other half of the dough, forming a ball.
- Roll the dough to continue to round out the ball and pinch the seams and then set aside. Continue making the rest of the apple pie bombs.
- Combine the cinnamon and sugar mixture into a small bowl. Dip each dough ball into the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Add parchment paper to the bottom of air fryer basket and add the dough balls on the top, place seam side down in a single layer. Make sure to leave 2 inches in between each one. You may have to cook these in two batches. You can also use cooking spray if you don't have parchment paper.
- Add the basket to the air fryer and cook on 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.
