How to Make It
You’ll love how simple these bites are to prepare.
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot enough for baking.
- Melt the butter: In a small saucepan or microwave, melt the unsalted butter and then set it aside to cool slightly.
- Mix cinnamon and sugar: In a bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon to create the sweet coating.
- Coat the biscuits: Open the can of biscuits and separate each biscuit. Dip each one into the melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
