Ingredients (Makes 8 bombs):
For the Dough:
- 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuits (or gluten-free alternative if preferred)
For the Filling:
- ¼ cup blueberry jam (organic or gourmet style for best flavor)
- ¼ cup fresh blueberries (or more if desired)
For Coating & Baking:
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
- Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting before serving)
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat Oven & Prepare Tray
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) .
Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper.
Step 2: Flatten the Biscuits
Open the can of biscuits and separate them. Flatten each one gently using your hands or a rolling pin until they’re about ¼-inch thick , forming a round disc shape.
Tip: Work quickly while the dough is still cold—it holds its shape better this way.
Step 3: Add the Blueberry Filling
Place 1–2 teaspoons of blueberry jam in the center of each biscuit round.
Top with a few fresh blueberries (about 2–3 per bomb).
Step 4: Seal the Bombs
Fold the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch together to seal. Roll between your palms to create a smooth ball.
Make sure there are no cracks or gaps—this prevents leaking during baking.
Step 5: Brush with Melted Butter
Place melted butter in a small bowl.
Dip the top (or all sides) of each sealed bomb into the butter, coating evenly.
Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each for airflow.
Step 6: Bake Until Golden
Bake for 12–15 minutes , or until the bombs are puffed and golden brown.
Let cool slightly before handling—they’re hot inside!
Step 7: Dust & Serve
Once cooled enough to handle, lightly dust with powdered sugar for a classic finish.
Serve warm and enjoy every juicy, flaky bite!
Tips for Success:
- 🔪 Seal Well: Press the seams tightly to prevent fruit from escaping while baking.
- 🧈 Butter Is Key: For that rich, bakery-style finish—don’t skip it!
- 🥣 Make Ahead Option: Store unbaked bombs in the fridge overnight or freeze uncooked for future baking.
- ❄️ Freeze for Later: Freeze fully baked bombs after cooling—reheat in the oven or microwave for best results.
- 🥄 Use Fresh Berries: For the juiciest filling—frozen works too, but drain well before using.
Serving Suggestions:
- Pair with whipped cream or Greek yogurt for extra indulgence.
- Drizzle with additional blueberry jam or honey for more sweetness.
- Serve as part of a breakfast spread or dessert platter.
