Ingredients

  • 1 (20 ounces) refrigerated canned biscuits 567 grams
  • ½ cup butter I used salted and melted (1 stick) (113 grams)
  • 2 Tablespoons ground cinnamon 18 grams
  • 1 cup granulated sugar 200 grams

Instructions

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 arrange them on the baking sheet or air fryer basket.

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.

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.

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. Enjoy !!

Notes

To preserve the freshness and flavor of your Cinnamon Sugar 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.
To Serve : For a delectable dessert, pair them with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. A drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce adds an extra layer of indulgence.
