Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love how quick and simple this recipe is. It uses store-bought biscuit dough to cut down on prep time, but still delivers a homemade taste. The cream cheese adds a rich, tangy layer that pairs beautifully with the sweet blueberry filling, and the cinnamon-sugar coating gives them that classic, nostalgic pastry flavor. Plus, they’re perfect for serving warm right out of the oven—or even reheated the next day.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

  • 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)

  • 1 cup blueberry pie filling

  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened

  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

  • ⅓ cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions

  1. I preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

  2. In a small bowl, I blend the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

  3. I separate the biscuit dough into 8 rounds and flatten each one into a 4-inch circle.

  4. I place about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture and a spoonful of blueberry pie filling in the center of each dough circle.

  5. I fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges together tightly to seal them into a ball. Then, I place each bomb seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

  6. I bake for 13 to 16 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the dough is cooked through.

  7. While they’re baking, I mix the cinnamon and granulated sugar in a small bowl.

  8. Once slightly cooled, I brush each bomb with melted butter and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mix until fully coated.

  9. I love serving these warm, sometimes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side.

Servings and timing

  • Prep time: 15 minutes

  • Cook time: 15 minutes

  • Calories per serving: Approx. 230 kcal

Variations

  • I sometimes swap the blueberry pie filling with cherry, apple, or raspberry for a twist.

  • For an extra tangy bite, I mix a little lemon zest into the cream cheese filling.

  • If I want a crunchier topping, I sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the cinnamon sugar.

  • I also like brushing the tops with egg wash before baking for a shinier, bakery-style finish.

Storage/Reheating

I store leftover pie bombs in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the fridge for up to 4 days. To reheat, I warm them in a 300°F oven for about 5–7 minutes or pop them in the microwave for 15–20 seconds. They’re best enjoyed warm so the filling gets gooey again.

FAQs

How do I stop the filling from leaking out?

I make sure to pinch the dough tightly when sealing the bombs. Pressing firmly and double-checking the seams helps keep all that delicious filling inside.

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes, I assemble them ahead and store in the fridge (unbaked) for up to a day. When I’m ready, I just pop them in the oven as usual.

Can I freeze blueberry pie bombs?

Absolutely. After baking and cooling, I freeze them on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer bag. I reheat them in the oven directly from frozen at 325°F until warm.

Can I use homemade biscuit dough?

Yes, I sometimes use my own dough recipe if I want a more traditional, buttery flavor. Just make sure the dough is thick enough to hold the filling.

What’s the best way to serve them?

I love serving these warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dusting of powdered sugar. They also make a great brunch treat with coffee.

Conclusion

These Blueberry Pie Bombs are such a satisfying and easy dessert. I love how the buttery biscuit dough, sweet blueberry filling, and creamy center come together in just 30 minutes. Whether it’s for a weekend indulgence, a family gathering, or just because, I know I’ll be making these again and again.
