Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s what you’ll need to make these delicious Apple Caramel Bombs:

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (or puff pastry sheets)

  • 2 medium apples, peeled and diced (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work great)

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

  • 8 soft caramel candies or 1/3 cup caramel sauce

  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

  • Optional: coarse sugar or cinnamon sugar for sprinkling


How to Make Apple Caramel Bombs

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Cook the apple filling. In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cook for 5–7 minutes until tender and caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  3. Prepare the dough. Separate biscuit dough pieces (or cut puff pastry into squares). Flatten each piece slightly with your hands.

  4. Assemble the bombs. Place a spoonful of the apple mixture and one caramel candy (or drizzle of caramel sauce) in the center of each piece of dough. Carefully fold the edges up and pinch to seal tightly, forming a ball.

  5. Brush with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar for extra crunch.

  6. Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.

  7. Cool for a few minutes before serving — the inside will be hot and gooey!


Tips for the Perfect Caramel Apple Bombs

  • Seal them tightly so the filling doesn’t leak while baking.

  • Use firm apples that hold their shape when cooked.

  • For extra indulgence, drizzle warm caramel or glaze over the baked bombs.

  • Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for the ultimate dessert.


Serving Ideas

These Apple Caramel Bombs are amazing straight from the oven, but they’re also great served at room temperature. They make the perfect treat for fall festivals, holiday dessert tables, or cozy weekends at home.
