Why You’ll Love This Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls Recipe

These cinnamon rolls are the perfect blend of convenience and flavor. Since they skip the yeast, you don’t need to wait for the dough to rise, making them ideal for spontaneous cravings. The dough is tender and light, the filling is deeply spiced and sweet, and the glaze on top finishes it all with a silky touch. It’s comfort food made simple.

Plus, you can make them ahead and reheat, or enjoy them fresh from the oven. Great for weekend treats, holiday mornings, or sweet little pick-me-ups during the week.

Can I Use Another Baking Mix Instead of Bisquick?

Bisquick works beautifully in this recipe because it’s already got leavening agents and fat mixed in. That said, if you’re using a different all-purpose baking mix like Jiffy or a homemade substitute, you can still make this work. Just check if the mix contains baking powder and shortening; if not, you may need to add those in to achieve a similar texture.

Ingredients for the Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

Name: Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls
Prep time: 10 min
Cook time: 20 min
Total time: 30 min
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 ½ cups Bisquick mix; ½ cup milk; 2 tablespoons granulated sugar; 2 tablespoons butter, softened; ⅓ cup brown sugar; 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon; ½ cup powdered sugar; ½ teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 to 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)

What makes these cinnamon rolls special is that the ingredient list is short, accessible, and fuss-free. Each item plays a key role in achieving that fluffy, sweet, and sticky goodness.

Bisquick mix – The foundation of the dough, it simplifies the process and provides the perfect soft, biscuit-like texture.

Milk – Used to bring the dough together. Whole milk adds a bit more richness, but any milk will work.

Granulated sugar – Just a little bit in the dough balances the savory elements of the Bisquick.

Brown sugar – Adds that classic molasses sweetness in the filling. It melts into the swirls, creating caramel-like pockets.

Ground cinnamon – The star of the show for that warm, comforting spice.

Butter (softened) – Mixed with the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling, and also brushed for added richness.

Powdered sugar – Key for the glaze, giving it that smooth, silky finish.

Vanilla extract – Enhances the sweetness and adds depth to the glaze.

Milk (again) – A splash in the glaze to thin it out just right.

How To Make the Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

Step 1: Make the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Bisquick, milk, and granulated sugar. Stir until a soft dough forms. If it’s too sticky, add a bit more Bisquick. Lightly flour a surface and knead the dough gently for about 1 minute.

Step 2: Roll and Fill

Roll the dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Spread softened butter evenly over the surface. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl, then sprinkle the mixture generously over the buttered dough.

Step 3: Roll It Up

Starting from the longer side, gently roll the dough into a log. Slice into 1-inch rounds and place them cut side up in a greased baking dish.

Step 4: Bake

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 18 to 22 minutes, or until golden brown and set.

Step 5: Make the Glaze

While the rolls are baking, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a splash of milk until smooth.

Step 6: Glaze and Serve

Once the rolls are out of the oven and slightly cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top and serve warm.

How to Serve and Store These Cinnamon Rolls

These rolls are best served warm from the oven, but they reheat beautifully in the microwave or oven the next day. If you’re prepping for a brunch or breakfast gathering, bake them the night before and glaze just before serving.

They’ll stay soft and delicious at room temperature for up to 2 days in an airtight container. For longer storage, freeze the baked rolls (without glaze), then thaw and glaze before enjoying. This recipe makes 8 generous rolls, enough to satisfy 4 to 6 people depending on portion size.
