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.

I love brown sugar and butter on a warm biscuit!
Oh, my these will be so amazing on a crisp fall morning…with fried apples!
With butter and strawberry jam or with sausage gravy.
Oh, these look soooooo yummy!
I would love to try the White Lily products.

I'll eat biscuits any way you want to give them to me! I have never used White Lily flour and can't wait to try it and see the difference!
I would love to try these biscuits but I can't have the gluten. They look so good. I will be making them for my husband because he loves snickerdoodle cookies. I am sure he would eat them with gravy or jelly and everything in between.
Smothered in Southern Sausage gravy, yum!
I love biscuits with sausage gravy,and also with butter and syrup!
Thank you!
Brandie; I enjoy grape jelly on my biscuits and then covering them with sausage gravy. Sounds crazy, I know…but give it a try! Delish!
Sopping up over easy egg yolks or milk gravy! Can't be beat!
Mouth watering!
Butter and jelly ! Yumm
Hmmm, how to pick a favorite? Everything is better with a biscuit! I love a creamy potpie topped with biscuits or a biscuit drenched in a savory beef stew. A biscuit shortcake topped with luscious berries and whipped cream is also quite nice.Mmmmm…

I was raised on buttermilk biscuits but I will be trying these they sound wonderful! <y favorite way to eat biscuits is open faced with fried chicken and gravy! MMMM good, now I want biscuits dang it all! LOL
For these biscuits, butter and maple syrup!
I love biscuits right out of the oven with butter!
Depends on the biscuit. If it's a plain biscuit I like butter and honey, but jelly would work in a pinch. I also love bacon, eggs and cheese. If it's a sweet biscuit likes this I would just add butter! Everything is better with butter.
Looks good! Fall recipes! Gotta try some!
These look yummers!
With bacon, egg, and cheese.
