Apple Caramel Bombs

There’s something irresistibly comforting about the combination of warm apples, cinnamon, and caramel. These Apple Caramel Bombs are a modern twist on classic apple desserts, combining the indulgence of a deep-fried treat with the cozy flavors of fall. Each bite is an explosion of sweet, spiced apple filling wrapped in golden, crispy dough—perfectly finished with a generous drizzle of caramel and vanilla icing.

Ideal for gatherings or a special dessert night, these apple bombs come together surprisingly quickly with the help of refrigerated biscuit dough. The filling is rich and buttery, made with diced apples, brown sugar, and a touch of cinnamon for that perfect balance of sweet and spice. The exterior gets its crunch from a coating of cinnamon sugar and crushed graham crackers or cookie crumbs, creating a texture that contrasts beautifully with the soft interior.
