Secret Tips for the Perfect Easy Cinnamon Sugar Dessert Bites
1. Use chilled biscuit dough: Cold dough is easier to handle and helps your cinnamon sugar dessert bites hold their shape while baking, keeping the apple filling inside.
2. Seal the edges tightly: When stuffing the biscuit dough with gooey apple filling, pinch the seams closed really well. This prevents the apple cinnamon mixture from leaking out during baking.
3. Roll generously in cinnamon sugar: Coat the bites thoroughly for a sweet crunch that enhances the warm apple flavor. The sugar caramelizes slightly, giving the dessert bites an irresistible golden finish.
4. Bake until golden brown: Keep an eye on them in the oven—perfectly baked cinnamon sugar bites should be crisp on the outside while keeping the gooey apple filling soft inside.
5. Add a drizzle: For extra indulgence, finish with a drizzle of caramel sauce, cream cheese glaze, or melted white chocolate. This elevates your biscuit dough apple cinnamon bites into a bakery-style treat.
