If you’re craving cinnamon rolls but don’t have the patience (or time) to wait for dough to rise, these Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls are the answer. They come together in a flash, thanks to the magic of Bisquick, and still deliver that cozy, gooey, cinnamon-sugar experience we all adore. Perfect for a weekend brunch or a last-minute treat, these rolls are soft, fluffy, and dripping with a quick glaze.

The beauty of this shortcut recipe is its simplicity. No yeast, no waiting, and no fancy tools required. The dough is tender, the filling is perfectly spiced, and the drizzle of glaze on top ties it all together. Whether you’re baking for family, guests, or just yourself, these rolls are a sweet comfort in every bite.

What Kind of Bisquick Should I Use?

Regular Original Bisquick works best for these rolls. It has the perfect balance of leavening and flour to create a soft, biscuit-like dough. If you’re gluten-free, you can substitute with Bisquick Gluten Free mix, but the texture will be slightly different—still delicious!

Ingredients for the Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

Bisquick Baking Mix: This is the base of our dough, providing a quick and fluffy structure without the need for yeast.

Milk: Used to bring the dough together and create the right consistency.

Granulated Sugar: Just a touch in the dough for a little sweetness.

Brown Sugar: Adds that deep, caramel-like sweetness in the filling.

Ground Cinnamon: The heart of any cinnamon roll—warm, spicy, and aromatic.

Butter (melted): Helps bind the filling and adds rich, buttery flavor.

Powdered Sugar: Essential for a sweet and silky glaze.

Vanilla Extract: A little splash enhances the glaze with floral sweetness.

Milk (for glaze): Helps to thin the glaze to the perfect drizzling consistency.

How To Make the Easy Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

Step 1: Make the Dough

In a large mixing bowl, combine Bisquick mix, granulated sugar, and milk. Stir until a soft dough forms. If it’s sticky, sprinkle a little more Bisquick and gently knead just until manageable.

Step 2: Roll It Out

Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and roll into a rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Try to keep the edges even.

Step 3: Add the Filling

Brush the melted butter evenly across the dough. Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon generously over the buttered surface.

Step 4: Roll and Slice

Roll the dough tightly from the long end to form a log. Use a sharp knife or dental floss to slice into about 8 even rolls.

Step 5: Bake

Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 6: Glaze and Serve

While the rolls bake, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk to form the glaze. Once baked, let the rolls cool slightly, then drizzle with glaze and enjoy warm.

How to Serve and Store These Rolls

These Bisquick cinnamon rolls are best served warm, right after the glaze has been drizzled. For an extra indulgent bite, add a pat of butter or a scoop of whipped cream on top. If you’re making them ahead, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days. Reheat briefly in the microwave to bring back that fresh-baked softness.
