Caramel Apple Pie Bombs (Print Format)

Biscuit balls filled with apple and caramel, fried and rolled in cinnamon sugar. Quick dessert, ready fast.

# Ingredients:

→ Dough and Filling

01 - 1 can (7.5 oz) biscuits, Great Value brand preferred
02 - 1 can (21 oz) apple pie filling
03 - 10 individually wrapped caramels, halved lengthwise

→ Coating and Frying

04 - 1 cup granulated sugar
05 - 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
06 - Vegetable oil, for frying
07 - Caramel sundae topping, optional for drizzling

# Steps:

01 - Fill a 2-3 quart heavy-bottomed saucepan slightly over halfway with vegetable oil, enough to fully submerge the dough balls. Set aside.
02 - In a small heat-safe bowl, mix together granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
03 - Open the can of biscuits and flatten each piece of dough using your fingers or a rolling pin. If using a rolling pin, lightly flour your work surface.
04 - Place 1 tablespoon of apple pie filling in the center of each dough circle. Top it with a halved caramel piece.
05 - Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal, ensuring no gaps. Roll the sealed edges under to form a ball.
06 - Heat the oil on medium until it is hot enough that a small piece of dough dropped in bubbles immediately.
07 - Carefully lower the dough balls into the hot oil using a slotted metal spoon. Fry no more than 2 dough balls at a time, turning them with the spoon to cook evenly. Remove once all sides are golden brown.
08 - Transfer the fried dough balls to the cinnamon sugar bowl. Roll them to fully coat in the mixture.
09 - Serve immediately. Optionally, drizzle with caramel sundae topping for added flavor.

# Tips:

01 - Ensure the caramel pieces are halved for proper melting during the frying process.
