Ingredients:
– 1 can (8-count) Grand biscuits (not flaky layers or crescent roll dough)
– 1 cup cherry pie filling
– ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
– ½ cup cinnamon/sugar blend
Directions:
1. Preparation:
– Separate the biscuits into two layers and place them on a clean surface.
– Roll out each layer of the dough until it reaches approximately 4 inches in diameter, resulting in 16 circles.
– Spoon about 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling into the center of each circle. Seal the edges by pinching them together and form the dough into balls.
– Brush all sides of the bombs with melted butter, then coat them generously with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
2. Air Fryer Instructions:
– Preheat the air fryer to 330°F and spray the basket or racks with oil to prevent sticking.
– Arrange the bombs in a single layer in the air fryer basket or on the racks, ensuring they are spaced out.
– Air fry for approximately 6-7 minutes. Gently wiggle the bombs to loosen them from the baskets.
– Continue air frying for another 1-2 minutes or until they achieve a crispy golden brown texture. Serve warm.
3. Oven Bake Instructions:
– Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
– Place the bombs onto the baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each.
– Bake for 12-15 minutes until they turn a delightful golden brown color.
– Serve warm to enjoy the soft and gooey cherry filling.
