It’s not fall until you’ve made apple pie bombs a la mode with creamy vanilla ice cream and glazed apples all over the tops. I love fall dessert recipes!
What Apples Are Best For Apple Pie?
The best apples for baking keep their structure, which keeps the chunks of fruit from turning into bland pockets of apple mush after spending some time in the oven.
Granny Smith apples are generally our go-to baking apple, but here are six others that bake well: Jonagold, Honeycrisp, Braeburn, Mutsu, Winesap, and Pink Lady.
In one day I made more fried food than I even care to admit. It was bad. But, I hate getting a pan of oil going on the stove so when I fry recipes for the site I like to slam it all out in a couple days of testing so that I can get as money things done in one batch of oil as possible. And it’s hot out which was adding to the nasty while I stood in the kitchen and fried food. I seriously think I was sweating oil by the end of it. So technically you all owe me because these apple pie bombs a la mode that were inspired by a recipe I did for Pillsbury were to die for and now you all can enjoy them too.
But really, you guys should pin the heck out of it as a thank you. 🙂 Just kidding.
Can Apple Pie Bombs Be Left Out Overnight?
These apple pie bombs can be kept covered with plastic wrap or foil at room temperature for up to two days. After that, they can be stored in the refrigerator for two more days.
Will Apple Pie Bombs Hurt a Dog?
All of the typical ingredients in apple pie bombs are safe for dogs.
In fact, apples themselves can be a healthy treat to share with your pet.
But we won’t encourage you to give apple pie bombs to your dog.
While the apple does offer nutritional benefits, apple pie is basically apple drowning in sugar, which your dog doesn’t need.

And while we are talking fall things, check out the awesomeness that we just discovered. Yes, I know we live in Lehi and everyone has loved on Cornbelly’s for ages, but we weren’t sure if it was really worth it. Well we had the opportunity to hop on a helicopter before the work day began and tour over Thanksgiving Point and Cornbelly’s and guys, it’s awesome! 
It was so fun for our little one to meet the Tin Man and Dorothy and don’t worry they are totally pulling out a fun event in a couple of weeks that you’ll for sure want to be a part of. Stay tuned for more info, but in the meantime, at least mark your calendars for :
Everything is so clean and well kept and most of all fun. See the yellow? That’s an actual jumping thingy! It’s all full of air and the kids jump on it. And see off to the right, the big huge rocking chair?
Isn’t the maze amazing?! How can Brett, the founder do such an amazing job?! We cannot wait to go with the whole family and if you see us there, please say hello!!

I’d love to make these, but I don’t use pre-made dough, and I don’t have a microwave. So … can you suggest any adjustments? Especially a dough recipe that would work? Thanks!!!
Hi Diane! Any dough recipe will work great…bread dough, cinnamon roll dough, biscuit dough. Here is a link to our cinnamon roll dough recipe: https://ohsweetbasil.com/worlds-best-cinnamon-rolls-recipe/
For the apples, you can just cook them on the stove top in a low sauce pan.

Do you have to fry these! I have a donut pan that I’d love to try this out in.
Check this recipe out…baked and not fried: https://ohsweetbasil.com/apple-empty-tomb-rolls-recipe/
I am a little confused, are you suppose to cut each biscuit into 4 pieces? It looks like you just use one biscuit per bomb in the video?
Barbara
Hi Barbara! I apologize for the confusion! You can do either one depending on how “bready” you want them to be. 🙂 Enjoy!
I tried the Apple pie bomb and their delicious and easy to make.
We are obsessed with them!
I realize it may not be as delicious, but any chance I can brush with egg white and bake on parchment??
What is the bisciut pastry that is used
Our favorite is Pillsbury Grands.
Do you use a whole biscuit per bomb?
Yes!
carl
Is there other flavor combinations….my husband loves raspberries…thank you
And I am going to still make these….can’t wait until I can get to the grocery store
oh, we will have to work on that for sure!
These sound perfect for this time of year!
Thanks Lindsay!
Hi, these look Amazballs,my husband love loves apple pie and vanilla ice cream. Can you use apple pie filling? To cut time in half if in a hurry to get somewhere?
Tiffany, I’m all about that idea! I’m sure it will work as long as you seal it well. I’d love to hear how it goes!
umm yumy yummy , we dont need oven for thihs , can we fry it in pan?
Oh…. My…. God. They look flawless and so, SO yummy!
I do have a question though… What kind of apple did you use? Which is the best?
Thanks! 🙂
We actually use a variety. Sometimes I’ll use a granny so it has that tart bite but our kids prefer a golden or honey crisp (the latter being my personal favorite)
Are you taking one biscuit and cutting it into quarters and then rolling it into a circle?
I’m opening the biscuit up and then cutting it, though you can make it thicker and leave it as one biscuit. 🙂
Oh my gosh, do you have the cutest family ever or what?!?! And yeah. This dessert is the bomb. (ha, get it?)
oh gosh, thank you! I don’t know about cute, but we do have a lot of fun! lol, and you’re hilarious xoxo
this recipe has 1 can biscuits, what would be the Australian equivalent of this product?
just any refrigerated biscuit dough or bread dough. You could even use frozen rolls. 🙂
thank u for that. In South Africa we also dont get canned biscuit s 🙂 🙂 x
Woah, these are literally the BOMB dot com!
