Get ready for a treat that feels like pure comfort! Cinnamon Sugar Biscuit Bites are tiny pillows of warm, buttery dough coated in sweet cinnamon magic. They’re quick, fun, and unbelievably satisfying—perfect for breakfast, snacking, or sharing during cozy gatherings.
Origin
This recipe is inspired by classic American “pull-apart” cinnamon breads and shortcut pastries created using canned biscuits. As households started embracing faster, family-friendly baking in the mid-20th century, these delightful bites became a beloved go-to for anyone wanting something homemade without the fuss.

Cinnamon treats carry a nostalgic charm. Whether enjoyed during holiday mornings, weekend brunches, or family movie nights, these little bites feel like a warm hug. They embody the spirit of togetherness—easy to make, easy to share, and absolutely joyful to eat.
Ingredients Quantity
- 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- Optional: 1 tsp vanilla extract (for butter)
Optional Additions
- A drizzle of vanilla icing
- A pinch of nutmeg for deeper spice
- Caramel sauce for dipping
- Chocolate drizzle for dessert-style bites
- Chopped pecans or walnuts for crunch
Tips for Success
- Cut biscuit pieces evenly for consistent cooking.
- Toss the pieces in the cinnamon-sugar mixture immediately after coating them in butter so the sugar sticks perfectly.
- Don’t overcrowd the baking pan—give them space for even browning.
- Serve warm for the ultimate soft-and-crispy texture combo.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment.
- In a small bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon.
- Cut each biscuit into 4 smaller pieces.
- Dip each piece into melted butter (add vanilla if using).
- Roll each buttered piece in the cinnamon-sugar mix.
- Arrange the coated pieces on the baking sheet, leaving slight gaps.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, until golden and puffed.
- Serve warm—add icing or sauce if desired!
