How To Make Air Fryer Nutella Bombs
Step One: Remove the biscuits from the package, and use a rolling pin to flatten them. Then in the center of the biscuits, add about 1-2 tablespoons of Nutella into the center. One piece of dough is one Nutella Bomb.
Step Two: Using your hands pinch the seams of the biscuit dough closed and repeat until they are all sealed. Spray your air fryer basket, place them into the basket, and then brush with melted butter.
Step Three: Set the cooking temperature to 320 degrees F and the cooking time to 8-12 minutes. Remove when golden brown.
Step Four: Serve them with a dusting of powdered sugar!
Air Fryer Nutella Bombs Recipe Tips
- Seal the dough tightly: Make sure the edges of the biscuit dough are pinched securely around the Nutella filling to prevent it from leaking during cooking.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket: Arrange the Nutella bombs in a single layer in your air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and browning.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone mat: To prevent the Nutella bombs from sticking to the air fryer basket, you can use parchment paper or a silicone mat, but make sure to cut it to fit your basket size.
- Brush with butter: Brushing the dough with melted butter before air frying helps achieve a golden, crispy finish and adds extra flavor.
- Adjust cooking time based on size: If you’re using larger biscuit dough, you may need to increase the cooking time by a couple of minutes to ensure they are cooked through.
- Add a sprinkle of powdered sugar: For an extra touch, dust the Nutella bombs with powdered sugar after they’re done to give them a sweet finishing touch.
Storing
- Storing: To store leftover Air Fryer Nutella Bombs, let them cool completely and place them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to 1 week.
- Freezing: You can freeze Air Fryer Nutella Bombs by placing them on a baking sheet in a single layer and freezing until solid, then transferring them to a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Reheating: To reheat frozen or leftover Nutella bombs, simply place them back in the air fryer at 320°F for about 3-4 minutes, or until heated through and crispy again. Alternatively, you can reheat them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes.
Air Fryer Nutella Bombs Recipe Faqs
Can I use a different filling instead of Nutella? Yes, you can replace Nutella with other fillings like peanut butter, chocolate chips, or fruit preserves. Just make sure the filling is not too runny to prevent it from leaking out.
Do I need to use biscuit dough, or can I use something else? While biscuit dough is ideal for its flaky texture, you can also use crescent roll dough or puff pastry as alternatives for a different twist.
How can I prevent the Nutella from spilling out? Be sure to pinch the seams of the dough tightly to seal the Nutella inside. You can also double-seal by folding the edges of the dough over the filling.
Can I make these ahead of time? Yes, you can assemble the Nutella bombs and refrigerate them until ready to air fry. They will be just as delicious once you cook them fresh.
How do I know when they’re done cooking? The Nutella bombs are done when the dough is golden brown and crispy. You can check by gently pressing on the dough; it should feel firm and slightly crisp on the outside.
Can I freeze Air Fryer Nutella Bombs? Yes, you can freeze the unbaked Nutella bombs for up to a month. When ready to cook, just pop them into the air fryer straight from the freezer, adjusting the cook time as needed.
How can I add more flavor to these bombs? Brush the finished bombs with a cinnamon sugar mixture or drizzle them with melted chocolate or caramel for extra sweetness and flavor.
