Air Fryer Apple Pie Bombs are made with biscuit dough filled with apple pie filling, air fried until golden brown, then brushed with melted butter and coated in cinnamon sugar. They’re warm, sweet, and taste like little handheld apple pies.
I love how quickly these come together with just a few simple ingredients. You get warm apple pie flavor and a cinnamon-sugar coating without making an entire pie.
Why I Love Apple Pie Bombs
About the Ingredients ⭐
- Apple Pie Filling: Canned apple pie filling keeps these quick and easy.
- Grands Biscuits: Refrigerated biscuit dough creates the soft, golden outside.
- Sugar & Cinnamon: Combine them for the sweet cinnamon-sugar coating.
- Butter: Brush melted butter over the warm apple pie bombs so the cinnamon sugar sticks.

How to Make Air Fryer Apple Pie Bombs
Prepare the Biscuits: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F. Split each biscuit in half and flatten slightly.
Fill the Apple Pie Bombs: Place about 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling in the center of each piece of dough. Bring the dough around the filling and pinch it closed to form a ball.
Air Fry: Place the apple pie bombs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 10 minutes, flip, and cook for another 5 minutes, or until golden brown.
Add the Cinnamon Sugar: Brush the warm apple pie bombs with melted butter. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together, then coat each one in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Tips I Found Helpful 💙
- Don’t overfill the dough. About 1 tablespoon of apple filling makes the bombs easier to seal.
- Pinch the seams tightly so the filling stays inside while they cook.
- Leave space between them so the hot air can circulate and brown them evenly.
- Add the cinnamon sugar while warm so it sticks to the melted butter.
