Ingredients
Cinnamon Roll Bites
- 2 (1.55 ounce) cans refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing, 8 count each (16 cinnamon rolls total)
- 4 tablespoons butter
Cinnamon Sugar Coating
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Baking Sheet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly spray a baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Cinnamon Rolls: Open the cans of cinnamon rolls and separate each roll. Set aside the icing packets for serving later. Cut each cinnamon roll into four equal pieces. Roll each piece into a small ball using the palm of your hands and place them about an inch apart on the baking sheet.
- Bake the Bites: Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes, or until the bites turn golden brown.
- Mix Cinnamon Sugar: While the bites are baking, whisk together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
- Cool and Coat Bites: Remove the baked cinnamon roll bites from the oven and let them cool for five minutes. Meanwhile, melt the butter until liquid. Place the slightly cooled bites into a large bowl or resealable plastic bag, pour the melted butter over them, and toss to coat evenly.
- Add Cinnamon Sugar: Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the butter-coated bites and toss again until each bite is well coated with the cinnamon sugar.
- Serve: Serve the cinnamon roll bites warm with the reserved icing for dipping, making for a sweet and delicious treat.
Notes
- For best flavor and texture, serve the Cinnamon Roll Bites the same day you bake them.
- You can store leftover bites in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one day.
- These bites are perfect for parties, breakfast, or snack time.
