(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

2. Open the package of biscuits. Press or roll each biscuit flat, then place about 1 tablespoon of Nutella in the center of each biscuit.

3. Pinch the edges of the biscuit together to seal the Nutella inside, then roll the biscuit into a ball and place it on the prepared baking sheet.

4. Bake for about 17-22 minutes, or until the biscuit bombs are golden brown and cooked through.

5. While the bombs are baking, melt the butter in a small bowl. In another bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.

6. Once the biscuit bombs are done, remove them from the oven. Roll each warm biscuit in the melted butter and then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat.

7. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store loosely covered at room temperature for up to 2 days.

FAQs

1. Can I use regular biscuit dough instead of Grands biscuits?

Yes, you can use any biscuit dough, but Grands biscuits tend to be flakier and provide a nice, thicker crust for the bombs.

2. How do I prevent the Nutella from leaking out?

Ensure you pinch the edges of the biscuit dough tightly to seal the Nutella inside before baking. If needed, you can fold the edges over slightly to create a more secure seal.

3. Can I make these churro bombs ahead of time?

Yes! You can assemble the churro bombs ahead of time and refrigerate them until you’re ready to bake them. Just let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes before baking.

4. Can I freeze Nutella churro bombs?

Yes, you can freeze unbaked churro bombs. Place them on a baking sheet to freeze individually, then transfer them to a freezer bag. Bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cook time.

5. Can I make these churro bombs without cinnamon sugar?

If you’re not a fan of cinnamon sugar, you can skip the cinnamon sugar coating and simply roll the bombs in granulated sugar or even powdered sugar for a different touch.

6. How long should I bake the churro bombs?

Bake the churro bombs for about 17-22 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through. The exact time may vary depending on your oven.

7. Can I use a different filling for the churro bombs?

Yes, you can get creative with the fillings! Try using jam, caramel, or even marshmallow fluff for different flavor combinations.

8. What if I don’t have parchment paper or a silicone baking mat?

You can lightly grease the baking sheet if you don’t have parchment paper or a silicone mat. Just be sure to watch the bombs closely to prevent sticking.

9. Can I make Nutella churro bombs in an air fryer?

Yes! Preheat the air fryer to 375°F, and cook the churro bombs for about 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Make sure to check for doneness, as air fryers can cook faster.

10. How do I make the churro bombs extra crispy?

For an extra crispy texture, you can lightly brush the tops of the biscuits with butter before baking, or you can bake them for an additional couple of minutes.
