There’s something truly magical about recipes passed down through generations, especially when they come from Grandma’s kitchen. These Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls are not just a treat for your taste buds; they’re a warm hug from the past, guaranteed to make any day brighter. With a simple yet irresistible combination of Bisquick mix, butter, sugar, and cinnamon, these rolls are bound to become a beloved tradition in your family too.

Ingredients:

2 1/4 cups Bisquick mix

2/3 cup milk

1/4 cup butter, softened

1/3 cup packed brown sugar

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1/3 cup warm heavy cream

For the Glaze:

1 cup powdered sugar

1 tablespoon melted butter

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon heavy cream

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F and generously grease an 8-inch round cake pan or pie plate with cooking spray.

In a medium bowl, combine the Bisquick mix and milk to form a smooth dough.

Dust a clean surface with flour and roll out the dough into a rectangle measuring approximately 8″ x 12″.

Spread the softened butter evenly over the rolled-out dough, then sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon on top.

Carefully roll up the dough from one of the long sides to create a tight log.

Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 6 equal pieces.

Place the rolls into the prepared pan, leaving a little space between each one.

Pour the warm heavy cream over the rolls, allowing it to seep into the crevices.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the center rolls are cooked through and golden brown on top.

If the rolls start to brown too quickly, loosely cover them with foil and continue baking.

While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and heavy cream until smooth.

Once the rolls are done, remove them from the oven and immediately drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls, ensuring each one is generously coated.

Serve these heavenly Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls warm and fresh out of the oven for the ultimate indulgence. Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature.

Serving and Storage Tips:

Serve Warm: Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven when they’re still warm and gooey. The aroma of cinnamon filling your kitchen will entice everyone to the table.

Garnish Before Serving: Before serving, make sure to generously drizzle the glaze over the warm rolls. This adds an extra layer of sweetness and decadence that takes these rolls to the next level.
Pair with Your Favorite Beverage: These cinnamon rolls pair perfectly with a hot cup of coffee, a glass of cold milk, or even a soothing cup of tea. The combination of warm, fluffy rolls and a refreshing beverage is simply unbeatable.
Store Properly: If you happen to have any leftovers (which is rare!), store them in an airtight container at room temperature. They should stay fresh for up to 2-3 days, though they’re best eaten on the day they’re made.

Reheating: To reheat leftover cinnamon rolls, you can either microwave them for a few seconds to warm them up or pop them back in the oven at a low temperature for a few minutes. This helps restore their softness and freshness.
Freezing: If you want to make a larger batch or save some for later, you can freeze the unbaked rolls after slicing them and placing them in the pan. Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and aluminum foil before freezing. When ready to bake, allow them to thaw in the refrigerator overnight before baking as directed.
Customize: Feel free to customize these cinnamon rolls to your liking by adding chopped nuts, raisins, or even a drizzle of caramel sauce. Get creative and make them your own!

By following these serving and storage tips, you can ensure that every batch of Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls is enjoyed to the fullest, whether you’re serving them up for breakfast, brunch, or a sweet treat any time of the day.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of milk in this recipe?

Absolutely! While the recipe calls for regular milk, you can easily substitute it with any other type of milk, such as almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk. Just keep in mind that using a different type of milk may slightly alter the flavor and texture of the rolls.

Can I make these cinnamon rolls ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the rolls ahead of time and refrigerate them overnight before baking. After slicing the rolls and placing them in the pan, cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate. In the morning, remove the rolls from the refrigerator, allow them to come to room temperature, and then bake as directed. This is a great option for easy breakfast or brunch preparation.

Can I freeze the baked cinnamon rolls?

While it’s best to enjoy these cinnamon rolls fresh, you can freeze any leftover baked rolls for later enjoyment. Allow the rolls to cool completely, then wrap them individually or as a whole in plastic wrap and aluminum foil before placing them in a freezer-safe bag or container. To reheat, simply thaw the rolls in the refrigerator overnight and warm them in the microwave or oven until heated through.

Can I omit the glaze or substitute it with something else?

The glaze adds a delicious sweetness and a finishing touch to these cinnamon rolls, but if you prefer, you can omit it or substitute it with a different topping. Cream cheese frosting, maple icing, or a simple dusting of powdered sugar are all great alternatives. Feel free to get creative and customize the rolls to your taste preferences!
