Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

There’s something incredibly comforting about homemade cinnamon rolls. The aroma of freshly baked goods wafting through the kitchen brings back memories of lazy Sunday mornings spent with family. That’s why I love making Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls — they come together so quickly and easily, yet taste utterly divine. Each bite is fluffy, sweet, and just the right amount of sticky. They’re perfect for breakfast or as a special treat anytime you crave something warm and comforting.

What to Gather for Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

To create these delightful rolls, you need a handful of key ingredients that work beautifully together to create a fluffy and sweet treat. The Bisquick mix provides a solid base, while the granulated sugar and brown sugar add the perfect sweetness. The buttermilk keeps the dough tender and moist, and the butter adds richness. Together, these ingredients create the ideal cinnamon rolls that everyone will love.

• 2 3/4 cups Bisquick mix – This versatile mix forms the base of your dough, ensuring a soft and fluffy texture.
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar – Adds sweetness to the dough, balancing the flavors wonderfully.
• 3/4 cup buttermilk – Keeps the rolls moist and tender, contributing to their delicious flavor.
• 2/3 cup packed light brown sugar – This gives a rich, caramel-like sweetness to the cinnamon filling.
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon – The star flavor of these rolls that gives them that classic cinnamon roll taste.
• 6 tablespoons butter, melted – Adds richness and helps the dough come together beautifully.
• 1 1/3 cups powdered sugar – Essential for creating a sweet glaze to drizzle over the finished rolls.
• 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter – Used in the glaze for added flavor.
• 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream – Helps thin out the glaze to drizzle perfectly.
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract – Adds a hint of warmth and depth to the glaze.

How to Make Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

Getting started on Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls is a fun and rewarding experience. With just a few easy steps, you’ll have hot, gooey rolls ready to enjoy. Let’s dive into the process and make your kitchen smell heavenly!

1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9-inch pie pan or cake pan. This ensures your rolls don’t stick during baking, making cleanup easier.
2. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the Bisquick mix, granulated sugar, and buttermilk just until a dough forms. It’s okay if there’s a little dry Bisquick remaining; you can add a splash more buttermilk if needed. The dough should be soft but not too sticky.
3. Sprinkle some flour on a clean surface – you can use a pastry mat, counter, or even parchment paper. This will help you roll out the dough without it sticking.
4. Roll the dough out into an approximate rectangle of 8 by 12 inches. Aim for an even thickness so that the rolls bake uniformly. You want it to be about half an inch thick.
5. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Then, add 2 tablespoons of the melted butter and mix it in to create a paste-like filling.
6. Brush the remaining melted butter over the rolled-out dough. This adds flavor and helps the cinnamon mixture stick.
7. Evenly sprinkle the cinnamon mixture over the entire surface of the dough. Make sure to cover every inch to ensure every bite is flavorful.
8. Now, roll the dough up jellyroll style, starting at one of the long ends. Keep the roll tight but not so tight that the filling spills out.
9. Use dental floss or a sharp knife to slice the rolled dough into 8 equal pieces. These will be your individual rolls. Dental floss can help make clean cuts without squishing the rolls.
10. Place the rolls in your prepared pan. Make sure they’re snug but not overcrowded, as they will expand while baking. Bake in the preheated oven for about 22 to 25 minutes, or until the centers are no longer gooey. You want them golden brown.
11. While the rolls bake, prepare the glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, melted butter, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. If it’s too thick, add a bit more heavy cream until you reach your desired consistency.
12. Once the rolls are done, let them cool for a few minutes before drizzling the glaze over the top. Enjoy your delicious Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls warm from the oven!

I’m the one who brought this group together. I’ve always believed that food tastes better when it’s shared, and I wanted to create a space that felt as warm and sunny as our home state. I’m usually the one writing our posts and helping Brooke develop our main course recipes. My favorite days are when we’re all in the kitchen together, music on, cooking up our next idea.
