This Easy Cinnamon Roll Bites recipe is a great way to turn a tube of refrigerated biscuits into an amazing breakfast. The bites are coated in cinnamon and brown sugar and baked until golden. A sweet glaze drizzled over them is the finishing touch. And the best part. 🙂
These Biscuit Cinnamon Roll Bites are very difficult to stop eating. They’re best warm from the oven when their gooeyness is at its peak. They are like Monkey Bread except they are spread out more so there are tons more cranies for the glaze to seep down into.
Ingredients Needed for Cinnamon Roll Bites
- 16-ounce Tube Refrigerated Grands Biscuits
- Butter
- Light Brown Sugar
- Cinnamon
- Powdered Sugar
- Vanilla Extract
- Milk
How To Make Biscuit Cinnamon Roll Bites with Canned Biscuits
(More detailed instructions below in recipe box.)
- You’ll start with a tube of refrigerated biscuit dough. I typically use Pillsbury Grands, either homestyle or southen-style.
- Cut each biscuit in fourths and dip in melted butter.
- Then roll them in a mixture of cinnamon and brown sugar.
- Place them in a greased 9×13-inch pan and bake them for 18 to 22 minutes.
- To make a glaze, whisk together 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla and enough milk to make it a good consistency for drizzling.
Tips For Making
- You can assemble the bites the night before. Just be sure to wrap them well with plastic wrap so they don’t dry out. Refrigerate them overnight.
- They are best eaten right away, but can be reheated the next day for an almost as good breakfast.

Wow, easy and so so so good! Soft, warm, and with a crispy edge. Wash down with cup of hot tea!! These taste especially amazing with a homemade royal frosting or something like it- cream cheese, melted butter, heavy cream, powdered sugar, pinch of salt.
I really loved this recipe. My 1st time making cinnamon bites and they were a hit!! THANKS SO MUCH!!❤️❤️❤️❤️
It was great! Everyone loved it and it’s very easy to make!
OMG, one of the best recipes I have tried. I made a double batch of cinnamon and brown sugar with extra cinnamon(one teaspoon more). Next time I might reduce the brown sugar. Putting the mix in the microwave made it much easier to coat the biscuit drops. For the topping I had some vanilla cake frosting in a cup. So I microwaved it for about 10 seconds, which made it runny. I saturated the bites after they came out to the oven. It reminded me of a cinnamon bun, store front in the mall, these are that good!
