4-Ingredient Cinnamon Sugar Biscuit Bites

These Cinnamon Sugar Biscuit Bites deliver all the golden, buttery comfort of monkey bread or mini churro bites in a fraction of the time. By cutting canned refrigerated biscuits into bite-sized pieces and tossing them in melted butter and cinnamon sugar, they bake up crispy and caramelized on the outside while staying soft and fluffy on the inside.

The 4 Ingredients

1. Refrigerated Flaky Biscuits (1 can / 16 oz, such as Pillsbury Grands!) – Cut into quarters for bite-sized pieces.
2. Unsalted Butter (½ cup / 1 stick, melted) – Coats the dough so the sugar sticks and bakes into a caramel glaze.
3. Granulated Sugar (½ cup) – Forms the crisp, sweet outer crust.
4. Ground Cinnamon (1 ½ tablespoons) – Provides that warm, classic cinnamon-sugar coating.

(Optional finish: Drizzle with a simple glaze made from ½ cup powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon milk).

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or a 12-cup muffin tin.
2. Prep the Coating: In a small bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Melt the butter in a separate shallow bowl.
3. Cut the Biscuits: Open the can of biscuits and cut each individual biscuit into 4 equal pieces (yielding 32 to 40 bites total).
4. Dip & Roll: Dip each biscuit quarter into the melted butter, then roll it thoroughly in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until completely coated.
5. Arrange & Bake: Place the coated biscuit pieces directly into the prepared baking dish (or divide them evenly among muffin cups). Drizzle any remaining melted butter and cinnamon sugar over the top.
6. Bake to Golden: Bake for 18–22 minutes until the tops are deep golden-brown, puffed, and bubbling with caramelized sugar.
7. Serve Warm: Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve hot straight from the pan!
