Ingredients
Scale
For the Filling:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 cup finely diced onion
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese or cheese cubes
For the Dough:
- Store-bought biscuit dough or homemade bread dough
For the Coating:
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Optional: chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling:
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the ground beef until browned.
- Stir in diced onion, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until onions soften.
- Remove from heat, mix in shredded cheddar cheese, and let cool slightly.
- Shape the Bombs:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Flatten small portions of dough into circles.
- Place a spoonful of the filling into the center, fold the dough over, and seal tightly to form balls.
- Coat the Bombs:
- In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, and Parmesan cheese.
- Brush each bomb generously with the mixture.
- Cook the Bombs:
- Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffy.
Notes
- For a crispier texture, fry the bombs instead of baking them.
- These bombs can also be cooked in an air fryer for a healthier option.
- Add diced jalapeños for a spicy twist or use mozzarella for a cheesier flavor.
