    Making these Crispy Cinnabites is a journey of pure delight. As the warm scent of cinnamon fills my kitchen, I am instantly transported back to cherished moments from my childhood, where the aroma of baked goods was synonymous with comfort and joy.

    I am sure you are going to fell Just like Grandma's Kitchen while enjoying these sweet treats ! These Cinnamon Sugar Bites are more than a dessert; they are a testament to the magic that happens when simple ingredients come together with care and passion.

    Ingredients

    Ingredients used in making 4-ingredient cinnamon sugar bites.
    • Biscuit Dough: Store bought can of refrigerated biscuit dough. It has a tinge of salt that adds an extra dimension to the taste
    • Ground Cinnamon: Use fresh ground cinnamon for warm and soothing aroma.
    • Butter: Use 1 stick of salted butter. Make sure to use melted butter so that the cinnamon sugar mixture can coat the dough bites thoroughly.
    • Sugar: I prefer using granulated white sugar. You can also use coconut sugar, palm sugar or monk fruit extract.

    Options/ Substitutions

    • Add a touch of vanilla extract to impart a subtle richness, elevating the overall flavor profile to new heights.
    • You can also use refrigerated cinnamon rolls instead of biscuit dough if you like. They will however, have different texture.

    How to Make

    Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture

    In a shallow bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix them well to ensure an even distribution of flavors.

    Cut the Biscuit Dough

    Open the package of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters. This will give you bite-sized pieces that are perfect for snacking. Lightly coat the pieces with melted butter or cooking oil spray and place biscuit bites on the baking dish or air fryer basket.

    Cut the can of biscuit dough into quarters for bite size pieces.

    Air Fry Or Bake
    If you want to Air Fry : Air Fry at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes. Halfway through, open the air fryer basket. Gently shake the basket to ensure there's enough space between the nuggets.
    If You want to Bake : Pop the baking sheet into the preheated oven 350°F (175°C) and let the magic happen! Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the Cinnamon Sugar Bites are golden brown. ( Use parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy clean up)

    Coat with Melted Butter

    Dip each biscuit piece into the melted butter, ensuring it's fully coated. This step not only adds flavor but also helps the cinnamon sugar mixture adhere.

    Put the biscuit bites in melted butter.

    Roll in Cinnamon Sugar

    Roll the butter-coated biscuit piece in the cinnamon sugar mixture, making sure it's generously covered. The sugar and cinnamon will stick to the butter, creating a sweet, spiced coating. I prefer to use a zip-lock bag for this so that, all the pieces can be coated at once.

    Now comes the best part – indulging in these heavenly Cinnamon Sugar Bites! They're perfect for snacking, sharing, or as a delightful addition to your morning coffee or tea.

    Storage

    To preserve the freshness and flavor of your Cinnamon Roll Bites, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. This will keep them at their peak for up to two days. If you plan to enjoy them later, consider freezing them in a well-sealed container.

    To reheat, simply warm them in an air fryer or pre-heated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, allowing them to regain their crisp exterior and tender interior. You can also reheat them in microwave.

    What to Serve with Crispy Cinnamon Bites

    Churro Bites are incredibly versatile, making them a delightful addition to various occasions. Serve them warm for breakfast, alongside a steaming cup of coffee or Chai Tea, for a cozy start to the day.

    They also make a wonderful accompaniment to brunch, offering a sweet contrast to savory dishes. During fall season, I serve them along with Mulled Apple Cider.

    For a delectable dessert, pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, creating a symphony of contrasting temperatures and textures that will leave your taste buds singing. A drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce adds an extra layer of indulgence.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can I substitute margarine or a dairy-free butter alternative for regular butter?

    Yes, you can substitute margarine or a dairy-free butter alternative for butter in this recipe. Keep in mind that the flavor may vary slightly. Also, be sure to check the packaging for any special instructions on baking with the specific product you choose.

    Can I use brown sugar instead of granulated sugar in this recipe?

    While you can certainly experiment with brown sugar for a slightly different flavor profile, it's worth noting that it will impart a deeper, caramel-like taste to your Cinnamon Sugar Bites.

    Can I use refrigerated cinnamon rolls dough instead of can of biscuits dough?

    You can use a cinnamon rolls dough instead of biscuit dough. There will be difference in texture. The cinnamon rolls will be more soft and doughy while the biscuits dough makes these bites more crispy. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.
