Cherry Pie Bombs are delightful bite-sized pastries made with flaky crescent roll dough filled with sweet cherry pie filling. Coated in a cinnamon-sugar mixture and baked to golden perfection, these easy-to-make treats are perfect for dessert or a sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Dough

  • 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough

Filling

  • 1 cup cherry pie filling

Topping

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles along the perforations.
  3. Add Filling: Place about 1 tablespoon of cherry pie filling in the center of each triangle, being careful not to overfill.
  4. Roll and Seal: Starting from the wider end, roll the dough around the cherry filling and pinch the edges firmly to seal the pie bombs and prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
  5. Mix Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon, mixing well.
  6. Coat Pie Bombs: Brush each pie bomb with melted butter to help the cinnamon sugar adhere, then roll each one in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
  7. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated pie bombs on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced slightly apart to allow even baking.
  8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the pie bombs turn a beautiful golden brown color.
  9. Serve: Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm for the best flavor and enjoy your delicious cherry pie bombs!

Notes

  • Ensure the edges are sealed tightly to prevent filling from leaking while baking.
  • You can substitute cherry pie filling with other fruit pie fillings like apple or blueberry.
  • Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra indulgent treat.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat gently in a microwave or oven before serving.
