Snickerdoodle Biscuits
Snickerdoodle Biscuits are sweet, tender and so yummy. A delicious and easy homemade biscuit that is perfect for breakfast or dessert!
A SWEET HOMEMADE BISCUIT
Snickerdoodle Skillet Biscuits! What?! I think this is my new favorite sweet biscuit! It’s got a sweet, slightly crusty exterior and the softest, tender inside. I think this would be amazing for breakfast or dessert. Oh, and maybe some apple butter or pumpkin butter spread on it. Or, how about serving it with some fruit like apples or strawberries or with a drizzle of icing!
Every biscuit is made better by using White Lily flour. I wouldn’t use anything else. It’s hands-down the best flour for making biscuits. It is every southern cook’s secret weapon. Once you touch this flour for the the first time, you can actually feel the difference.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED FOR SNICKERDOODLE BISCUITS: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- White Lily® self-rising flour
- sugar
- cold butter
- milk
- egg
- ground cinnamon
HOW TO MAKE SNICKERDOODLE BISCUITS:
Preheat oven to 450f degrees. Grease an 8-inch cast iron skillet (or 8-inch round baking pan) with butter (or no-stick cooking spray.) In a bowl, add the flour and sugar. Stir well. Then add milk, beaten egg and cubed butter. Stir it all up with a fork and/or a pastry cutter. You want to “cut” the butter into the mixture.
Continue to mix the ingredients together with the fork until a sticky dough forms.
Sprinkle a light coating of flour onto the counter and add the dough. Tip: I like to put some wax paper down on my counter then add the flour. This helps with clean up later.
Knead the dough about 3 times. I basically just press the dough in on itself a few times until it’s sturdy enough to roll out.
Sprinkle a bit more flour on a rolling pin then roll out the dough to about 1/4″ thickness. Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter, cut the dough into 5 or 6 biscuits. I cut out 5 biscuits but I could’ve rolled the dough back up and gotten another biscuit out of it.
In a wide bowl or plate, mix together the cinnamon and sugar topping.
Take a little bit of water or milk and lightly coat the biscuits to help the cinnamon sugar mixture stick to them.
Coat both sides of each biscuit in cinnamon sugar then place them (touching) into a prepared skillet or baking dish.
Pop skillet into the oven and bake for about 15-17 minutes.
They will puff up a bit and will have a light brown crust on top.

Going to make these for breakfast in the morning. Know the family will love them.
biscuits with orange blossom honey, oh yeah!
Look so delicious!! some homemade grape jelly or apple butter would be so yummy on these.
Honey!
I have to make these biscuits.
I read a comment from someone mentioning mixing sorghum molasses and butter together. This is they was my grandfather taught me to enjoy the delicious biscuits my grandmother made. While I don't know what brand flour SHE used, White Lily has been MY brand for 50 years.
These look amazing. I'll take biscuits any way you wanna serve them. B&G is a hands-down favorite, though.
Butter & honey for me, please.
i love them with sausage and gravy. if i cant have that, its butter all the way.
Sorghum molasses and butter…mix it up and slather it on your biscuits! Just not the same on toast!
Family favorite: "fried pumpkin"…my aunt's homemade biscuits made exclusively by "feel" and her fried pumpkin, which was made with fresh or canned pumpkin in her cast iron skillet,bacon grease, butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, some sugar…made "to taste". Easy to give up bacon and eggs when this was part of the meal.
We love biscuits any way fix them but these would be great with some fried apples over them, I bet they would taste like apple pie. going to try this on Sunday for my family.
I don't have biscuits as often as I'd like. 🙁 We count carbs so we have to choose carefully when to have biscuits.
This recipe looks wonderful! I love snickerdoodle cookies and will try this soon.
Butter and honey !!!!!!!!!

These look delish. I like this as a sweet version. I've never tried it, but I heard White Lily is a really good brand to use.
My favorite way to eat biscuits is with either butter and honey or just honey on them. Sometimes Butter and jam
I love biscuits with jam
Love biscuits! Thanks for sharing a yummy recipe
I love them best with sausage gravy, but lots of butter and honey is a close second.
I love biscuits and I can eat them any way! Biscuits and gravy, hot biscuits and Apple butter or syrup, and I even have a cold biscuit with coffee for an afternoon snack. I definitely am trying this recipe- – – Thanks for shating!
My favorite is a good sausage biscuit with mustard or a yummy jelly/butter biscuit! And I have to tell you, having been born and raised in the South and living here all my life, there is no match for White Lily Flour!! My mother used it and I have always used it as well. I also use their cornmeal mix. YUMMY!
I love my Biscuits with sausage gravy or chocolate gravy!
I love a nice warm Biscuit with plain ole Butter.
don't forget some good ole maple syrup.
Snickerdoodle biscuits sound wonderful. Must look for White Lily flour in my area and give these a try. I like my biscuits buttered and covered with honey.
Thanks for this giveaway.
The flour you use DOES make a difference & these sound yummy
This recipe looks delicious! One of the many many favorite ways to eat biscuits are "stuffed." Add a bit of anything–eggs, ham, sausage, cheese, veggies, pizza sauce…literally anything you like—to a biscuit round and close it to make a "bomb." Bake as usual. Great frozen for a quick after school snack.
Biscuits are good for any meal of the day! The snickerdoodle biscuits would be great slathered in butter for breakfast.
We grew up mixing sorghum molasses and butter, then dipping our biscuits in our individually mixed bit of deliciousness!
I will try this recipe but need to get the flour first. I like biscuits so many ways but with a little butter and blackberry jam is my absolute favorite!
I love biscuits anyway I can have them. I guess my most favorite is sausage, egg on a biscuit.
I love to take a jalapeno cheese brat and roll small pieces up in biscuit dough and bake them for anytime snacking! Otherwise, it's cinnamon, sugar, and butter baked biscuits with a maple glaze drizzle!
Look so yummy. We would love the eat my house.
