Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C): Preheating is crucial for achieving an even bake and a beautifully golden crust.
Prepare the Apple Filling: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the diced apples, cinnamon, brown sugar, and flour. Toss until the apples are evenly coated. This mixture will serve as the delicious filling, bringing together the natural sweetness of the apples and the warm spices.
Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent dough and cut it into triangles along the perforated lines. If you’re using a sheet of dough, simply cut it into equal-sized triangles.
Assemble the Bombs: Place a generous spoonful of the apple mixture onto the wide end of each triangle, and drizzle some caramel sauce over the filling. Be mindful not to overfill, as this can make sealing the bombs difficult.
Fold and Seal: Carefully fold the dough over the filling to create a pouch. Pinch the edges firmly to seal and prevent any filling from leaking during baking. For an extra secure seal, you can use a fork to crimp the edges.
Add the Egg Wash: Beat the egg in a small bowl and brush it over the top of each bomb. This step enhances the appearance by providing a glossy finish and contributes to a golden-brown color during baking.
Bake: Place the bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until they are puffed and golden brown. Keep an eye on them to prevent over-baking, as ovens can vary in temperature.
Finishing Touches: Once baked, remove the bombs from the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes. Drizzle with extra caramel sauce and dust with powdered sugar, if desired. This final touch adds a burst of sweetness and a hint of elegance, making them truly irresistible.
