# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They come together in under 40 minutes with ingredients you probably have on hand
  • The combination of warm spiced apples and molten caramel feels like an upscale apple pie in miniature form
02 -
  • The caramel gets incredibly hot in the oven and stays molten for quite a while after baking
  • Make sure to pinch the dough seams really tightly or the filling will leak out during baking
03 -
  • Work quickly once you start filling the dough so the butter does not soften too much
  • Use an ice cream scoop or tablespoon measure to ensure even portions in each bomb
