Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 (16.3-ounce / 462 grams) can Grands Big biscuits, flaky
- 1 (21-ounce / 595 grams) can apple pie filling or caramel apple pie filling
Coating and Seasoning:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Cooking Ingredient:
- Vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Craft a delicate mixture of granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow dish, setting it aside for the final coating process.
- Select a heavy-bottomed saucepan and fill it approximately halfway with vegetable oil, ensuring sufficient depth to completely submerge the dough spheres during frying.
- Delicately separate each biscuit into two halves by gently pulling apart the flaky layers. Use fingertips or a rolling pin to create uniform, slightly flattened circles without compromising the dough’s structural integrity.
- Position a dollop of apple pie filling precisely in the center of each dough circle. Meticulously seal the edges, pressing firmly to prevent leakage, then gently transform the sealed package into a smooth, seamless sphere.
- Ignite the oil, bringing it to a precise temperature of 325F (163C). Maintain this consistent heat throughout the frying process to guarantee optimal golden-brown transformation.
- Deploy a slotted metal spoon to carefully introduce the dough spheres into the simmering oil. Fry in small batches of 2-3, continuously rotating to ensure uniform coloration and prevent scorching. Anticipate approximately 5 minutes per batch for perfect crispy exterior.
- Extract the golden-brown orbs using the slotted spoon and immediately transfer them into the prepared cinnamon-sugar mixture. Thoroughly coat each piece, ensuring complete sugar coverage while the surface remains piping hot.
- Serve these decadent morsels immediately, preferably accompanied by a luxurious scoop of vanilla ice cream to elevate the sensory experience.
Notes
- Check oil temperature precisely using a reliable digital thermometer to ensure perfect golden-brown exterior without burning.
- Create uniform dough balls by using consistent pressure when sealing and rolling to prevent leaks during frying.
- Drain excess oil on paper towels before coating in cinnamon sugar for lighter, crispier texture.
- Experiment with different pie fillings like peach, cherry, or blueberry for variety and personalized flavor combinations.
