Instructions

PLEASE WATCH THE COMPLETE VIDEO FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE STEPS.

    ALWAYS READ THE COMPLETE RECIPE BEFORE STARTING. GATHER INGREDIENTS. ALSO ALWAYS READ THE NOTES FOR MORE OPTIONS AND TIPS.

      Preparing the Biscuit Cheese Bombs Ingredients

      • Take 1 mozzarella cheesestick and cut it into 12 small equal pieces. Similarly cut the other 3 cheesesticks too. You will have 48 small mozzarella pieces with you after cutting all the 4 sticks. Set them aside.
      • I used jalapenos with the cheese for this recipe to add a bit of kick and flavor. So if you plan to use it too, then finely chop the jalapeno and set aside. I kept the seeds with it. You can choose to remove it.
      • Now open the can of Pillsbury Grands Biscuit. Separate all the 8 biscuits and set aside.

      Preparing Biscuits into Cheese Bombs

      • Take 1 biscuit and separate it into 2 from the centre layer. WATCH THE VIDEO. Repeat it with all the biscuits. Now you will have 16 thin biscuits to make cheese bombs.
      • Take 1 thin biscuit and stretch it out a bit in all the directions using hands. Place 3 small mozzarella cheese pieces in the middle of the bisciut. If you are using jalapenos, then add a bit of chopped mozzarella also in the middle. WATCH THE VIDEO. 
      • Bring the sides of the biscuit to the center and close it. Roll it gently between your hands to create a ball/bomb. Place it on a plate.
      • Finish all the 16 thin biscuits likewise and roll them into bombs. Now brush them lightly with some melted butter on the top. 
      • Sprinkle with some everything bagel seasoning and dry parsley. Set aside.

      Air frying Pillsbury Biscuit Cheese Bombs

      • Preheat the airfryer at 310*F for 5 minutes.
      • Now place a parchment paper inside the basket. Then place 4-5 rolled biscuits inside the basket. Make sure there is gap between the 2 since they will expand as they cook in air fryer.
      • Air fry for 8-10 minutes till these get golden at the top. Once golden from top, remove from air fryer basket. Air fry the rest similarly. It will take 3-4 batches to cook all 16 biscuit cheese bombs.

      Serve

      • Serve these AIRFRYER BISCUIT CHEESE BOMBS with Spicy Mayonnaise or with the dip of your choice.
