Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make these treats ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the biscuits ahead of time by rolling them in butter and cinnamon-sugar, then refrigerating them until you’re ready to bake. Bake them fresh just before serving for the best texture and flavor.
Can I use a different type of biscuit?
Absolutely! You can use flaky biscuits, crescent rolls, or even gluten-free options if you prefer. Each type will provide a slightly different texture, but all will be delicious when coated in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
What can I do with leftover cinnamon-sugar?
Leftover cinnamon-sugar can be stored in a sealed container for future use. It’s great for sprinkling on toast, pancakes, or even over oatmeal for added flavor. You can also use it to enhance other desserts, like the Southern Cobbler.
