FAQs

1. Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the bites up to the baking step and store them in the fridge for a few hours before baking.

2. What kind of biscuit dough should I use?

Any standard refrigerated biscuit dough will work—homestyle, buttermilk, or flaky layers.

3. Can I use homemade biscuit dough instead?

Absolutely. If you prefer from-scratch dough, it works great, though prep time will increase.

Use parchment paper or grease the baking sheet well to avoid sticking.

No, it’s optional. The bites are sweet and flavorful on their own, but the glaze adds an extra treat.

Yes, melted coconut oil can be used as a butter substitute for a slightly different flavor.

8. What can I serve these with?

They’re great with coffee, tea, hot chocolate, or a side of fruit for brunch.
