How to Make It
Creating these delightful bites is as easy as pie; follow these steps:
1. Preheat
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
2. Melt Butter
Melt the unsalted butter in a small bowl until it’s completely liquefied.
3. Combine Sugar and Cinnamon
In another bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon until well combined.
4. Prepare Biscuits
Open the can of biscuits and separate them into individual pieces, then cut each biscuit into quarters.
5. Dunk and Coat
Dip each quarter into the melted butter, ensuring it’s fully coated, and then roll it in the sugar-cinnamon mixture.
6. Arrange and Bake
Place the coated biscuit pieces on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for about 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
How to Store It
