Apple Bombs Recipes

AIR FRYER APPLE BOMBS

Steps:

• Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper and preheat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Place apples into another bowl and top with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon-sugar mixture. Set aside.
• Separate each biscuit into 2, for a total of 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a 5-inch circle.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the apples onto each round and pinch to seal. Roll into a ball and place seam side-down in the basket, making sure they are not touching. Spray with avocado oil and air fry until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Turn balls over and air fry for an additional 4 to 6 minutes. Cook in batches if necessary.
• Remove from air fryer, spray with avocado oil, and roll in remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture.

CARAMEL APPLE BOMBS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Combine 1/4 cup dry pudding mix and spices. Add to apples in medium bowl along with the water; mix lightly.
• Unroll crescent dough; separate into 16 triangles. Spoon 1 heaping Tbsp. apple mixture onto shortest side of each triangle. Fold dough over apple mixture, completely enclosing apple mixture. Pinch edges of dough together to seal.
• Place, seam sides down, in 9-inch round pan sprayed with cooking spray; sprinkle with remaining dry pudding mix. Drizzle with butter.
• Bake 33 to 35 min. or until deep golden brown; cool slightly.
• Microwave caramels and milk in small microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 to 2-1/2 min. or until caramels are completely melted and sauce is well blended, stirring every minute. Drizzle over dessert just before serving. Sprinkle with nuts.

APPLE BOMBS

Steps:

• Peel & core the apple, Cut into 12 sections.
• Mix brown sugar, cinnamon & vanilla in large bowl with wire whisk.
• Peel bacon apart into individual pieces,.
• Take 12 pieces of bacon and drop them into bowl. Mix everything with your hands until all the bacon is evenly coated with the sugar mixture and there is no loose sugar in the bottom of the bowl.
• Take 1 slice of apple and 1 piece of bacon. Wrap bacon around apple, secure loose end with toothpick.
• Repeat until you have them all wrapped.
• I like to cook them on the grill - indirect over low to medium heat until the bacon is cooked. I check them about every 30 minutes, and might turn them over once. You could accomplish the same thing in an oven - about 300 degrees, checking every 30 minutes or so until bacon is done. Usually somewhere between 50 & 70 minutes.
• Watch the hot sugar, it'll burn you.
• Once the bacon is done, remove & cool on rack.
• They're great all by themselves, or cut up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I've also done them with orange zest in the sugar in place of the vanilla.
