Instructions
Creating Easy Caramel Apple Pie Bombs involves a few straightforward steps. Follow these instructions, and you’ll have a delicious dessert in no time:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prep the Apples: In a medium bowl, toss the diced apples with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg until they’re well-coated.
3. Add Caramel: Drizzle ½ cup of caramel sauce on the apples and mix to integrate the flavors thoroughly.
4. Roll Out Pie Crusts: Unroll the refrigerated pie crusts on a floured surface. Cut each crust into quarters or eighths, depending on the desired size of your bombs.
5. Fill the Crusts: Place a spoonful of the apple mixture in the center of each pie crust piece.
6. Seal the Bombs: Carefully fold the crust over the filling and pinch the edges to seal. You can use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
7. Prepare for Baking: In a small bowl, beat the egg with milk to create an egg wash. Brush the tops of the bombs with the egg wash and sprinkle a little sugar on top for extra sweetness.
8. Bake: Arrange the pie bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp.
9. Cool: Once baked, remove the bombs from the oven and let them cool for about 5-10 minutes.
10. Serve with More Caramel: Drizzle additional caramel sauce over the top of the bombs before serving.
