Recipe: Air Fryer Nutella Bombs

Ingredients:

• Pillsbury Grand biscuits, not flaky layers
• Nutella
• Unsalted butter, melted
• Confectioners’ sugar

Instructions:

1. Prep and Assemble: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Line the air fryer basket with parchment paper or use air fryer liners for easy cleanup.
2. Prepare the Biscuits: Carefully open the can of biscuits and separate them. On a clean surface, gently flatten each biscuit using your hands or a rolling pin, aiming for a larger and slightly thinner circle.
3. Fill with Nutella: Spoon about 1/2 tablespoon of Nutella onto the center of each flattened biscuit.
4. Seal and Shape: Carefully gather the edges of the biscuit around the Nutella, pinching them together to seal. Roll the biscuit between your hands to create a smooth ball.
5. Dip in Butter: Dip each Nutella-filled ball into the melted unsalted butter, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
6. Air Fry to Perfection: Place the coated balls in the air fryer basket, making sure to leave some space between them. Then air fry at 350°F for about 6-8 minutes, or until the bombs turn golden brown and crispy on the outside.
7. Dust with Sweetness: As soon as the Nutella bombs are done cooking, remove them from the air fryer and immediately dust them with confectioners’ sugar. The heat will help the sugar adhere to the surface.
8. Serve and Indulge: Lastly, serve the Air Fryer Nutella Bombs while they’re still warm and the Nutella is delightfully gooey. Enjoy the irresistible combination of flaky biscuit and the rich, creamy Nutella center.
