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 have a no yeast cinnamon roll that is fantastic, but that recipe uses sour cream and eggs.
These cinnamon buns have 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. You can also buy a box on Amazon.
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!
How to Make Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls
- Heat oven to 375º Fahrenheit. Spray an 8″ round cake pan or pie plate with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, combine Bisquick and buttermilk until a soft dough forms. Don’t over mix the Bisquick and the buttermilk. Stir just until a dough forms.
- Sprinkle flour on a pastry mat or on the counter. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough out to a 8×12″ rectangle on the floured surface. This dough can be a little sticky so that flour will help them roll up easily.
- Spread the entire surface with softened butter, then sprinkle sugar and cinnamon over the butter. And you can even add in a few other spices as you prefer….pumpkin pie spice or nutmeg are both great options.
- 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. 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.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the center roll is baked and not doughy. They should be lightly golden brown. 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. This will prevent them from browning too much.
- 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. The glaze will soak in slightly, but it just makes the Bisquick cinnamon rolls so, so good!
How to Store Cinnamon Rolls
The awesome thing about this bisquick cinnamon rolls 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.

What do you do to warm the heavy cream and how warm?
I am not a good cook, so sometimes even a recipe and a video don’t guarantee a good result for me, but this recipe worked perfectly! I used lemon juice to make the “buttermilk,” and I added butter to turn my 2% milk to whole milk; I was so glad the video showed how easy it is to use your hands instead of a rolling pin; pouring the milk over the rolls worked like a charm. These were moist and not like biscuits at all, which usually turn out too dry when I make them. Flavor delicious! Thanks for this… Read more »
Holy moly these were fantastic !! I had to improvise and make buttermilk with 1/2 and lemon juice-worked great. We are lovers of a good cinnamon roll -these were THE BEST
Omgosh the best
This recipe is really delicious. I took it to a church potluck and asked the teenagers what is the best thing here? Unanimous vote for Cinnamon Rolls! Also the best feature on the recipe is the area where you can put in the number of rolls you want to make and BAM the recipe amounts change. That is so very helpful!
Wow! Such a great recipe. Made up super quick for breakfast. Had no buttermilk so I used 1/3 cup each of sour cream and milk and I Covered the dough with cinnamon and raisins. Cut into 8 perfect rolls. Hubby and I just ate 2 each. The icing was perfect. Baked for 24 min in my toaster oven. I could go on…! Thank you for such a great recipe.
Really good
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 »
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 »
