Notes

Recipe tips.

Instead of a vanilla glaze, try topping with Cream Cheese Icing.
For an easy variation, toss in some chopped nuts or raisins.
Instead of canned biscuits, use Homemade Biscuit Dough. Weigh out 16 ounces, gently roll into an 8x4-inch rectangle, and cut into 32 equal pieces.
For easy biscuit removal and clean up, line the pan with parchment paper.

Prep ahead. Prepare the cinnamon biscuit bites the night before. Cover and store in the fridge, then bake them in the morning!

Freeze. Bake ahead and cool before wrapping tightly with plastic wrap and aluminum foil. Freeze for 4-6 weeks. Thaw overnight, remove the plastic, and replace the foil; reheat in a 350°F oven for about 15 minutes, or until warm throughout.

Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days, or freeze for about 1 month. Reheat small portions in the microwave.
