×As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. See full disclosure.Jump to RecipeThese Easy Air Fryer Apple Pie Bombs are the best! Flaky, miniature apple pies are made with refrigerated biscuits and filled with apple pie filling. Dip these homemade donuts in butter and coat with cinnamon sugar before cooking to create a "pie crust-like" shell.Crispy on the outside like a pie crust, soft and tender on the inside like a filled donut! These are the best apple pie bombs because dipping the biscuit dough balls in butter BEFORE cooking them in the air fryer creates the buttery, crisp outside and caramelizes the cinnamon sugar onto the crust as it bakes.These 4 ingredient Apple Pie Bombs are the bomb. Sorry. I couldn't resist saying it!Seriously, they taste like apple pie-filled donut holes that met up with churros-without the frying! And did I mention how quick and easy these bite-size sweet treats are to make? (Well, they actually may be two bites-size.)A similar sweet treat made in the air fryer is my Fried Oreos in Air Fryer with Crescent Rolls. It's also easy!Scroll down to printable recipe for ingredient quantities.My first dessert to make in the air fryer was "Fried" Oreos. Oh. Wow. Why would anyone heat up quarts of oil to fry them when these Air Fryer "Fried" Oreos are this delicious.Tip: The apple pie filling inside will be very HOT! So, let them cool at least 5 minutes before eating.Yes! Prepare the apple pie bomb dough balls up to right before placing them in the air fryer. Place all of them on a greased baking sheet or lined with parchment paper, 1 inch apart, and bake them in a conventional oven at 375F degrees for 15 minutes or until golden brown.For a convection oven, follow the same directions as an air fryer baking at 350F degrees. Place the dough balls on a wire cooling rack (not nonstick) coated with cooking spray, placed on the baking sheet, to create the same heated air flow underneath the apple pie bombs as in the air fryer.Pro Tip: Mind blower here. Air fryers are simply mini convection ovens.I use my air fryer almost every day. From reheating leftovers so they are crisp (not limp from the microwave), roasting Brussels sprouts or baking Meatloaf with Tangy Sauce, I find air fryers to be incredibly versatile.How do I make my own Cinnamon Sugar? Combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Can I use other spices or apple pie spice? Yes! Get creative. You can trade out an equal amount of apple pie spice or pumpkin pie spice or combine 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice to make your own apple pie spice to add to the sugar. What can I make with the leftover apple pie filling? Leftover apple pie filling can be stirred into breakfast oatmeal, top pancakes with them, and fill frozen phyllo cups. You can also freeze pie filling in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Can I freeze Apple Pie Bombs? Yes. Let them cool completely and place in an airtight container and freeze up to 3 months. Can I use another filling to make these? Yes, any canned pie filling will work. I have also made them with a can of "fried" apples. It's similar to pie filling but not as thick. Chocolate pudding can also be used but can be a little messy to pinch and seal. Storage and Reheating Place in an airtight container or zip-top plastic bag and store in the refrigerator for 3 days and freeze up to 3 months. To reheat from the fridge, air fryer at 350F degrees for 2 minutes. To reheat frozen pie bombs, air fry them at 350F degrees for 3 minutes, turn them over and air fry 3 to 4 additional minutes or until they are warm in the center.Follow me on&nbsp;Facebook,&nbsp;Instagram, Pinterest and YouTube.
