What our readers are saying

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Sara says, “I had everything in my cupboards for this recipe. I was craving cinnamon rolls so whipped this up. Very easy recipe to follow, you can quickly put this together. I was skeptical about pouring the cream over the unbaked buns but OMG. These rolls were amazing! Like she said little different texture because of the bisquick but they are so tasty. Don’t change a thing and just make these buns!”

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ K.O. says, “Great recipe, thanks! We like ours a tad on the crisp side, so I baked them separated on a cookie sheet like biscuits. Nicely done at 20 mins. Added vanilla, orange extract to the glaze! YUM!”

No Yeast Cinnamon Rolls

Because these cinnamon rolls don’t have yeast, they are more biscuit like in texture. We actually already had a no yeast cinnamon roll that is fantastic, but that recipe uses sour cream and eggs.

This cinnamon roll has no eggs, making it great for those with egg allergies. And it has no yeast, so no kneading or rising. But what it does have is Bisquick biscuit mix.

But what if I don’t have Bisquick?? Don’t worry… you can make your own! We have a simple recipe for homemade Bisquick that you can whip up in minutes and keep on hand for cookies and pancakes.

Buttermilk Substitute

This recipe calls for buttermilk. It really works well with the bisquick to create light, fluffy rolls with a great flavor. However, you may not have buttermilk on hand. Here are two options:

  • Make a buttermilk substitute. Place one teaspoon of vinegar (or lemon juice) in a 2/3 measuring cup, then fill the rest with milk. Allow the mix to sit for a few minutes. Use that in place of buttermilk for a similar result.
  • Use milk instead. It will work just fine!

Hints for Making Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

These easy cinnamon rolls are a great introduction into the process of making sweet rolls. There are just a few tips to keep the process running smoothly:

  • Don’t over mix the Bisquick and the buttermilk. Mix just until a dough forms.
  • Use a pastry mat (or other silicone mat) on a flat surface to roll dough out on. And make sure the work surface is floured lightly. This dough can be a little sticky so that flour will help them roll up easily.
  • Use as much cinnamon-sugar mixture as you’d like. And you can even add in a few other spices as you prefer….pumpkin pie spice or nutmeg are both great options.
  • Don’t skip the heavy cream! Heavy cream is our secret ingredient in all of our cinnamon and sweet roll recipes (read about our best homemade cinnamon rolls). It keeps them soft, gooey and extra rich. Yes, it will work without the heavy cream, but they are so much better with it. If you don’t have heavy cream, use half and half, coconut cream, evaporated milk, or whole milk.

  • Check the pan about 20 minutes into baking. If the rolls are getting too golden brown, cover the baking dish loosely with foil and continue to bake. This will prevent them from browning too much.
  • Frost them while they are warm. The glaze will soak in slightly, but it just makes them so, so good!

How to Store Cinnamon Rolls

The awesome thing about this recipe is that it only makes 6 rolls (and I promise they are not giant rolls). That means with our family of 5, there are rarely any leftovers to store and tempt us.

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. After 24 hours, refrigerate them.

These rolls are best served warm, so reheat for 15-20 seconds in the microwave if they are not fresh from the oven.

Ingredients
 

For the rolls:

For the filling:

For soaking:

  • 1/3 cup heavy cream (warmed)

For the frosting:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanila extract
  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 375º Fahrenheit. Spray an 8″ round cake pan or pie plate with cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, combine Bisquick and buttermilk until a soft dough forms.
  • Sprinkle flour on a pastry mat or on the counter. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to a 8×12″ rectangular shape on the floured surface.
  • Spread the entire surface with softened butter, then sprinkle with brown sugar and cinnamon.
  • Starting at the long end, roll the dough up jelly roll style, then slice into 6 equal pieces with a sharp knife or cut with dental floss. Place the rolls cut side up into the greased baking dish. Pour warmed heavy cream over the rolls.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the center roll is baked and not doughy. Pull up on the edge of a center roll to see if it looks done. Check the rolls at 20 minutes. If they are getting too brown, cover loosely with foil and continue to bake.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, butter, vanilla and cream. Drizzle in more cream if needed to get the consistency of the glaze you’d like. Spread the glaze over the warm rolls.

Followed the recipe exactly except melted fourth cup of butter in a 9 inch iron skillet in the oven and then added the rolls and sprinkled pecans around the rolls. Baked at 375 for 25 minutes, came out perfectly with a crispy butter bottom! Added icing and more chopped toasted pecans. Great for football mornings!!! Thanks for the recipe!

Easy to make and very good! I topped mine with a cream cheese & lemon zest frosting that I typically make for my banana bread. The family loved them! I will definitely make them again! I think the same recipe would also lend well to making pecan sticky rolls.

Very easy & taste great! Definitely more of a biscuity cinnamon roll but they were really good and I will make again! I did the substitute buttermilk recipe (vinegar/milk) and used Lactaid milk & that still worked out great. Also subbed lactaid milk in the icing, also came out great.

Easy and Delicious! It was a cold rainy day and my husband yearned for a warm cinnamon roll with his coffee. This recipe came up in my internet search. I had all the ingredients. Whipped up sone warm rolls much to his surprise and delight. Highly recommend. Took no time at all to make. I used half and half creamer. Delicious! Ten thumbs up!

Great recipe- did 1 1/2 cups bisquick and did the rest of the recipe with flour to combat the biscuitness, substituted milk for the soaking, and used oil instead of butter for the filling. Cooked on 400 for 15 minutes. They came out ooey gooey and a little crisp on top, super delicious. Perfect balance of crispness and ooey gooey deliciousness. The first time I made them I refrigerated them over night- were easier to cut and just as good. Will say, because of the oil substitution, some of the filling oil ran out a little, didn’t affect the flavor… Read more »

Yum! Quick, fun biscuit texture, and not too sweet. Use a bench scrapper to help with rolling up. Even with soft butter it would be impossible to spread, so I put pieces of butter evenly across the dough. I made homemade buttermilk with lemon juice (1tea)

I made this recipe exactly how it is written. At 25 minutes they were not cooked all the way, so I cooked an additional 5 minutes. They finally started to brown so I took them out after the additional 5 minutes. When I tried to take them out of the dish they were crumbly, and kind of gooey at the same time. I used a brand new box of Bisquick and whole milk with vinegar. They were still very good, but didn’t look very pretty. Also my dough looked thicker than yours when I rolled it up. I have a… Read more »
