Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Beef
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/4 cup Ketchup
- 1 tbsp Mustard
- 1 can Refrigerated Biscuit Dough
- 1/2 cup Pickles, chopped
Optional Variations
- Substitute ground beef with ground turkey or chicken
- Use plant-based ground meat or a mixture of beans and veggies for a vegetarian option
- Add extra cheese like mozzarella or a cheese blend
- Incorporate jalapeños or hot sauce for a spicy twist
- Experiment with seasoning like garlic powder or smoked paprika
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat, then stir in onion powder, ketchup, mustard, and chopped pickles. Mix well and let cool slightly.
- Preheat the Oven: While the filling cools, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure a perfectly baked outer crust.
- Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate it into individual biscuits. Flatten each biscuit into a small circle to create a base for the filling.
- Assemble the Bombs: Place a spoonful of the beef filling and a piece of cheddar cheese in the center of each flattened biscuit. Carefully fold the edges over the filling and pinch to seal, ensuring no filling escapes.
- Bake: Arrange the sealed bombs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
- Don’t Overfill: Keep the filling amount moderate to ensure that the bombs seal properly and bake evenly.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will enhance the overall flavor and make your bombs irresistible.
- Experiment with Seasoning: Don’t hesitate to season your meat more to suit your taste preferences.
- Let Them Cool: Allow the bombs to cool slightly before serving; this helps the cheese set a bit and makes them easier to handle.
- Serve with Dipping Sauces: Pair your bombs with additional ketchup, mustard, or a special sauce for added flavor.
