These blueberry pie bombs come together quickly with just a few simple steps. Preparing the filling first helps streamline
the process.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.
- Separate the biscuit dough and gently flatten each piece into a circle using your hands or a rolling pin.
- Place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the center of each dough circle.
- Add 1–2 teaspoons of blueberry pie filling on top of the cream cheese.
- Carefully fold the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching tightly to seal and form a ball.
- Place each sealed dough ball seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the pie bombs are puffed and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and allow them to cool slightly before serving.
Serving and Storage
Blueberry Pie Bombs are best enjoyed warm, when the filling is soft and the biscuit exterior is tender. They can be served
plain or dusted lightly with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness. Pair them with coffee, tea, or a glass of milk
for a comforting treat.
For storage, allow the pie bombs to cool completely before placing them in an airtight container. Store at room temperature
for up to 1 day or refrigerate for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven to restore softness.
Tips:
- Seal the dough tightly to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
- Do not overfill, as excess filling can cause the dough to burst.
- Soften cream cheese fully for a smoother cheesecake filling.
- Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Experiment with other pie fillings such as cherry or apple for variety.
