Ingredients
For the Blueberry Bombs:
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup blueberry pie filling (store-bought or homemade)
For the Glaze:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
2. Prepare the Dough
Open the can of crescent roll dough and gently unroll it onto a clean surface.
Separate the dough along the perforated lines to form 8 individual triangles.
3. Add the Blueberry Filling
Spoon about 1 tablespoon of blueberry pie filling onto the center of each triangle. Be careful not to overfill, or the filling may leak out during baking.
4. Seal and Shape
Fold each triangle over the filling, bringing the corners together to form a sealed pouch or bomb shape.
Pinch the edges tightly to fully enclose the filling and prevent it from oozing out in the oven.
5. Bake to Golden Perfection
Place the filled dough bombs on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the dough is puffed and golden brown.
6. Make the Glaze
While the pie bombs are baking, prepare the vanilla glaze.
In a small bowl, whisk together:
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Mix until smooth and pourable. Set aside.
7. Mix the Cinnamon Sugar
In another small bowl, stir together:
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
This will be used as a sweet, spiced finishing touch on top of the glaze.
8. Cool Slightly and Finish
Once the blueberry bombs are done, remove them from the oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
While still warm, drizzle each pie bomb with the vanilla glaze, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the top.
