Ingredients

- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Preparation Time
- Prep time: 10 minutes
- Bake time: 20–25 minutes
- Total time: 30– minutes
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). This ensures even baking and gives your biscuit bake that perfect golden finish.
2. Prepare the Biscuit Dough
Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters or small bite-sized pieces.
This step helps the dough cook evenly and allows every piece to get coated in the delicious cinnamon-sugar mixture.
3. Make the Cinnamon Sugar Mixture
In a medium bowl, combine:
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
Mix well until fully blended. The aroma at this stage already smells amazing!
4. Coat the Dough Pieces
Add the biscuit pieces into the cinnamon sugar mixture. Toss them gently until all pieces are evenly coated.
Make sure every piece is covered—this is what gives the bake its signature flavor and texture.
5. Arrange in Baking Dish
Grease a baking dish (or small casserole dish) with butter or oil.
Place the coated dough pieces into the dish. You can:
- Spread them evenly, or
- Layer them loosely for a pull-apart style texture
6. Bake to Perfection
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until:
- The top is golden brown
- The dough is fully cooked inside
Your kitchen will smell incredible at this point
7. Cool Slightly and Serve
Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
