Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can (8-count) Pillsbury Grand biscuits
- 1 cup (280 g) Nutella
Filling Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (113 g) unsalted butter, melted
Topping Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (31 g) confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
- Gently unfold each biscuit and delicately press them into thin circles, creating a soft, uniform base for filling.
- Carefully dollop a generous spoonful of Nutella precisely in the center of each biscuit, ensuring even distribution.
- Skillfully fold the edges of the biscuit, pinching and sealing the sides to create a compact, fully enclosed spherical shape.
- Activate the air fryer and calibrate the temperature to 350F (175C), allowing it to reach optimal heat for precise cooking.
- Position the Nutella-filled pastry orbs in the air fryer basket, arranging them with strategic spacing to promote even air circulation and consistent browning.
- Allow the pastries to cook for 8-10 minutes, watching for a rich golden-brown exterior that signals perfect caramelization and crispy texture.
- Carefully extract the hot Nutella bombs from the air fryer and immediately brush their surface with a light coating of melted butter for enhanced richness.
- Finish by delicately dusting the warm pastries with a soft layer of confectioners’ sugar, creating an elegant and sweet final presentation.
Notes
- Prevent Nutella leakage by freezing small Nutella dollops beforehand, ensuring a cleaner sealing process.
- Experiment with alternative fillings like peanut butter, fruit preserves, or cream cheese for diverse flavor profiles.
- Ensure biscuits are well-sealed to avoid bursting during air frying, using moistened fingertips to press edges firmly.
- Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer’s performance, checking at 6 minutes to avoid over-browning.
