Blueberry Bites Recipe
Description
This recipe uses jumbo canned biscuits, divided and shaped around blueberry pie filling so that the filling stays sealed inside. The dough is rolled to a quarter-inch thickness before filling with about one tablespoon of blueberry pie filling. Each bite is pinched securely to prevent leakage during cooking.
The assembled bites are air-fried at 350°F for eight minutes, producing a lightly crisp and flaky dough surrounding a gooey blueberry center. Brushing melted butter and sprinkling sparkling sugar after cooking adds flavor and a gently sweet crunch.
These bites serve as convenient handheld treats, offering a mix of tender biscuit texture and juicy blueberry filling. They are suitable as a snack or dessert and are simple to prepare with standard kitchen appliances.
Ingredients
- 1 Biscuit 5 count, jumbo, canned
- ¾ cup blueberry pie filling
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Sparkling Sugar
Instructions
- Divide each biscuit in half.
- Roll each piece of dough into a ball and flatten it to ¼ inch thick.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of the dough.
- Pinch two sides of the dough together and then pinch the opposite sides together until the dough is closed around the filling. Don't overfill the biscuits.
- Repeat for all the dough.
- Place parchment paper in the bottom of the air fryer basket or spray it with oil. Place the biscuit bites in the air fryer basket, keeping them about 1 inch apart.
- Air fry at 350°f for 8 minutes.
- Melt the butter. Then brush the biscuit balls with butter and sprinkle them with the sparkling sugar.
- Take them out of the air fryer and let them cool slightly before eating.
Notes
- Use biscuits with flaky layers for a tender texture.
- Limit filling to about one tablespoon to avoid bursting during air frying.
- Line air fryer with parchment or spray basket with oil to prevent sticking.
