Ingredients

Scale

Apple Filling

  • 2 apples, peeled and finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter

Assembly

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 8 pieces caramel candy
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • Cinnamon sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare and Cook the Apple Filling: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a medium baking dish with cooking spray. Melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped apples, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Cook while stirring occasionally until the apples are tender and the mixture is bubbling, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Remove the refrigerated biscuit dough from the can and separate the biscuits. Gently stretch each biscuit and flatten it evenly into a thin round using your fingers, rolling pin, or tortilla press, taking care not to tear the dough to make room for the filling.
  3. Fill and Seal the Dough Bombs: Place about 1 tablespoon of the apple filling in the center of each flattened biscuit. Top with one piece of caramel candy. Carefully gather the edges of the dough up around the filling and pinch them tightly to seal completely. Roll the sealed dough into a smooth ball.
  4. Arrange and Top the Dough Balls: Place the filled dough balls seam side down into the prepared baking dish. Brush the tops with melted butter. Optionally, sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the tops for added aroma and flavor.
  5. Bake and Serve: Bake the dough balls in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and transfer carefully to a serving platter. Serve warm for the best experience, optionally with caramel sauce or vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat.

Notes

  • Ensure the dough is sealed tightly to prevent caramel from leaking during baking.
  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for a balanced sweet-tart flavor.
  • Allow apple filling to cool slightly before filling the dough to avoid soggy biscuits.
  • Optionally, dust with powdered sugar for extra sweetness before serving.
  • These can be prepared ahead and baked just before serving.
