These Cinnamon Roll Bites are the easiest way to cinnamon roll flavor! Uses homemade or store-bought biscuit dough, a great make-ahead breakfast or dessert!
I was craving for cinnamon rolls but did not have time to make them. So I decided to make these cute little cinnamon bites! They are so easy to make, yet incredibly delicious. You can make them with your children!
They’ll love. Perfect for dessert, finger food at a party, or snack for your children! Enjoy them with a cup of coffee or tea!
I love these little bites, especially as the days get cooler and all you want is some fresh, hot, sugary bread straight from the oven. I also love that they’re so easy, you can make them ahead and quickly finish up and bake them in the morning. That way, you can even bring them still warm and gooey to your colleagues at work.

Ingredients:
Dough:
2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter (cold)
3/4 cup milk (cold)
Cinnamon Coating:
1 tbsp cinnamon (or more if you’d like)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
Frosting:
3 tbsp cream cheese (room temperature)
3 tbsp granulated sugar
3 tbsp milk
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp maple syrup (optional)
Directions :
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Sift and add all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt into a bowl.
- Cut cold butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients.
- With a spatula or dough cutter (or even with a fork) cut butter into small pieces until pea size.
- When butter is cut and mixed with flour, add cold milk. You’re going to roll the dough into small balls, so add more milk or flour if you’d like.
- Mix well until all ingredients for the dough are combined.
- Set the dough to a side, combine cinnamon, granulated sugar, brown sugar in another bowl.
- Stir it well so cinnamon is evenly distributed.
- Roll the dough into small balls using your hands, coat the balls with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Place the coated balls in a buttered pie pan (or really, any flat pan).
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- Your cinnamon balls should be golden brown and crispy. If not, bake for couple minutes more.
- Take them out of oven and set aside to let them cool. While they are cooling, we’ll make the frosting. (But if you prefer to drizzle when the cinnamon balls are hot, make the frosting while baking). Cooling makes the balls to keep crispness even after frosting.
- Combine softened cream cheese, lemon juice, sugar, milk, and maple syrup(optional) in a bowl.
- Mix well and check the consistency. You can use an electric hand mixer. But I just used a spatula. You can add more milk or cream cheese for your preferred consistency.
- Drizzle it over the cinnamon balls.
Secret: you can roll the balls and coat them with remained cinnamon coating mixture before frosting is dried! Extra sugary and yummy!
