Blueberry Pie Bombs

These Blueberry Pie Bombs are sweet, gooey, and irresistibly flaky handheld desserts made with biscuit dough, a creamy cheesecake filling, and blueberry pie filling—all finished with a golden cinnamon-sugar coating.

Ingredients

Scale

🔹 For the bombs:

1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)

1 cup blueberry pie filling (canned or homemade)

4 oz cream cheese, softened

2 tbsp powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

🔹 For the topping:

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

⅓ cup granulated sugar

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and prep

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2: Make the cream cheese filling

  • In a mixing bowl, combine:

    • 4 oz softened cream cheese

    • 2 tbsp powdered sugar

    • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Mix until completely smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Prepare the dough

  • Open the biscuit dough can and separate the 8 pieces.

  • Flatten each biscuit into a 4-inch round using your hands or the bottom of a cup.

Step 4: Fill the bombs

  • In the center of each flattened biscuit:

    • Add 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture.

    • Top with 1 tablespoon of blueberry pie filling.

  • Carefully gather the edges of the dough around the filling and pinch tightly to seal.

  • Place sealed side down on the baking sheet.

Step 5: Bake

  • Bake for 13–16 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.

Step 6: Add cinnamon-sugar coating

  • While baking, mix:

    • ⅓ cup granulated sugar

    • 1 tsp ground cinnamon in a small bowl.

  • When bombs are slightly cooled (but still warm):

    • Brush each with melted butter.

    • Roll each bomb in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.

Step 7: Serve

  • Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of glaze.

Notes

  • Don’t overfill the dough or it may leak during baking.

  • You can make your own pie filling using fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch.

  • These bombs can also be made in an air fryer at 350°F for about 10–12 minutes.

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days at room temperature or 4–5 days in the fridge.

  • To reheat, use the oven for a crisp exterior or microwave for a softer texture.

  • Freeze fully baked bombs for up to 2 months and reheat as needed.
