How to Make 4-Ingredient Blueberry Pie Bombs

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Preheat Your Oven
   Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Crescent Roll Dough
   Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles along the perforated lines. Place the triangles on your prepared baking sheet.
3. Add the Blueberry Filling
   Spoon about 1 tablespoon of blueberry pie filling onto the center of each dough triangle. Be careful not to overfill, as the filling can spill out during baking.
4. Fold and Seal
   Gently fold the edges of the dough over the filling to form a ball, pinching the seams tightly to seal. Don’t worry if they look a little rustic – they’ll puff up beautifully in the oven!
5. Brush with Butter
   Brush the tops of your pie bombs with melted butter. This step ensures a golden, flaky crust with a hint of buttery richness.
6. Bake to Perfection
   Bake the pie bombs in your preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and puffed up. Keep an eye on them toward the end to avoid over-baking.
7. Add the Finishing Touch
   Once they’re out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes. Dust the tops with powdered sugar for a sweet and pretty finish.
8. Serve and Enjoy
   Serve your blueberry pie bombs warm for the ultimate gooey, comforting experience. They’re perfect on their own or paired with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

Helpful Tips:

• Sealing Is Key: Make sure to seal the edges of the dough well to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
• Cool the Filling: If your pie filling is straight out of the fridge, let it come to room temperature before assembling to help the dough bake evenly.
• Experiment with Fillings: Try swapping out the blueberry filling with cherry, apple, or even Nutella for a fun twist on this recipe.
• Reheat for Freshness: To enjoy leftover pie bombs, warm them in the oven for a few minutes to regain their crispiness.
