Delish Peach Pie Bombs

If a peach pie and a donut eloped in Vegas and came back sticky-sweet and slightly chaotic, you’d get these Delish Peach Pie Bombs. They’re biscuit-dough pockets stuffed with juicy peaches and cinnamon sugar, air-fried or baked until golden and rolled in butter like they’re heading to prom. No fussy crusts, no lattice top to cry over—just bite-sized pies you can make with one eye on the oven and the other on the group chat. They’re dangerously poppable, gloriously low-commitment, and the mess is totally worth it. Yes, the pan is too small. No, I won’t wash fewer dishes.
Last weekend, I “tested” these while my husband claimed he was “organizing the garage,” which is code for staring at a toolbox and contemplating screws. The kids staged a peach heist, each walking by the cooling rack like they were in Ocean’s Eleven, just with stickier hands. I tried to be the responsible adult and let them cool, then burned my tongue taste-testing a molten peach pocket because I am both the chef and the cautionary tale. Worth it. Tongue still slightly numb.
Serves: 8 snacky humans or 4 overachievers • Time: 25–30 minutes • Equipment: Air fryer or oven, pastry brush, tiny bowl you’ll inevitably lose under a dish towel
Why You’ll Love This Delish Peach Pie Bombs
– They taste like summer vacation and poor impulse control had a baby.
– Crescent/biscuit dough = no rolling pin arm workout. Save your strength for opening the wine.
– Air fryer magic: crisp edges, gooey centers, and no “Is the oven even on?” existential crisis.
– Perfect for brunch, dessert, or “oops, I forgot a bake sale is tomorrow.”
– They look impressive. They are not. We love a low-effort flex.

Time-Saving Hacks
– Use canned peach pie filling. Does it feel slightly wrong? Absolutely. Is it delicious? Also absolutely.
– Skip the glaze bowl. Melt butter in a mug, dunk, then toss in a zip-top bag with cinnamon sugar. Shake like you’re making questionable life choices.
– Don’t chop peaches perfectly. Rustic chunks = “artisan” (aka I got bored).
– Air fryer parchment liners save your sanity and your scrub brush.
– Pinch-and-twist the seams, then flip seam-side down—no egg wash if you’re feeling rebellious.
– Warm the filling 20 seconds in the microwave so it thickens and behaves like it has manners.
Serving Ideas
– Vanilla ice cream. It’s the law.
– Whipped cream if you’re classy; canned whipped cream if you’re honest.
– Coffee for breakfast bombs. Or mimosas if the kids woke up “extra.”
– Dust with powdered sugar so they look like they went to finishing school.
– Salted caramel drizzle if you like sweet with a mic drop.
What to Serve It With
– Crispy bacon or breakfast sausage for a salty sidekick.
– A sharp cheddar plate, because peaches + cheddar is secretly fantastic.
– Simple green salad if you want to call this “balanced” for Instagram.
– Sparkling iced tea or Prosecco, depending on your to-do list and/or mood.
Tips & Mistakes
– Don’t overfill. Two spoons of peach filling is cute; three spoons is peach shrapnel.
– Seal well. Wet fingertips help the dough edges stick like besties.
– Vent a tiny slit if you’re nervous about bursting. It’s pie, not a pressure cooker.
– Air fryer: 350°F for 7–9 minutes, check at 6 because every air fryer is a diva. Oven: 375°F for 14–18 minutes.
– Let them sit 5 minutes before buttering. Hot sugar is basically lava with a PR team.
– If the bottoms are pale, flip for the last 2 minutes. No soggy bottoms on my watch, Paul Hollywood.
Storage Tips
Store it in the fridge… if there’s any left. Cold midnight leftovers? Sometimes better than fresh.
– Fridge: 3 days in an airtight container.
– Reheat: 350°F air fryer 3–4 minutes or oven 5–7 minutes.
– Freeze unglazed: 2 months. Thaw in the fridge, then warm and butter/sugar like they’re fresh.
Variations and Substitutions
– Cream cheese core: add a teaspoon sweetened cream cheese for peaches-and-cream drama.
– Fresh peaches: toss with a little sugar, cornstarch, lemon, cinnamon. Cook 5 minutes until jammy.
– Boozy: a splash of bourbon or rum in the filling. We’re adults, allegedly.
– Almond vibe: a drop of almond extract, then top with sliced almonds.
– Dough swap: puff pastry for extra flake, crescent sheets for easy sealing, gluten-free biscuit dough if needed.
– Dairy-free: use plant butter for the dunk and go sugar-only if you want.
– Spice switch: cardamom or ginger if cinnamon is “too basic” for your soul.

- 1 tbsp coarse sugar optional, for topping
- 0.5 cup powdered sugar for glaze

Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
- In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and ground cinnamon; set aside.
- Chop the peaches from the pie filling into bite-size pieces and let excess syrup drip off so the filling isn’t too wet.
- In a separate bowl, stir softened cream cheese with vanilla until smooth and spreadable.
- Open the biscuit can. On a lightly floured surface, flatten each biscuit into a round about 4 inches wide.
- Spoon about 1 tablespoon cream cheese into the center of each dough round, then top with a heaping tablespoon of chopped peaches.
- Bring the edges of the dough up and over the filling and pinch well to seal, forming a ball. Place seam-side down.
- Brush each ball with melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon sugar to coat. Set each into a muffin cup; sprinkle with coarse sugar if using.
- Bake 14 to 16 minutes, until deeply golden and the centers are cooked through. Let cool 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a rack.
- Whisk powdered sugar with milk until smooth and drizzle over warm pie bombs. Serve slightly warm.
