Ingredients
Scale
Makes 12 bombs:
- For the filling:
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef
- 1 small onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ketchup
- 1 teaspoon mustard
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 12 small cubes of cheddar cheese or mozzarella
- For the dough:
- 1 (16 oz / 450 g) can refrigerated biscuit dough
- For the garlic butter topping:
- 1/4 cup (60 g) unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Cook the filling:
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until the beef is browned and the onions are softened. Drain any excess grease.
- Stir in the minced garlic, ketchup, mustard, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Prepare the dough:
- Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each piece into a 4-inch circle.
- Assemble the bombs:
- Place a small spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each dough circle. Add a cube of cheese on top.
- Fold the edges of the dough up and over the filling, pinching to seal completely. Shape into a smooth ball and place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Make the garlic butter topping:
- In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, and parsley.
- Bake:
- Brush the tops of the dough balls with the garlic butter mixture. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the bombs are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve:
- Let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with dipping sauces like ketchup, ranch, or marinara.
Notes
- You can use pizza dough or crescent roll dough instead of biscuit dough.
- Add chopped pickles or bacon bits to the filling for extra flavor.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven or air fryer.
