Ingredients
-
1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
-
3 large eggs
-
3/4 cup milk
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
-
2 tablespoons sugar
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
1/4 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
-
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)
Instructions
Separate the biscuit dough and gently flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands. This helps them soak up the custard without losing their structure.
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar. Dip each biscuit into the mixture, turning gently to coat both sides.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter. Place the soaked biscuits into the pan and cook slowly, allowing them to turn golden brown on the outside while cooking through the center. Flip carefully and continue cooking until both sides are lightly crisp and fragrant.
In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon. While the biscuits are still warm, gently roll or sprinkle them with the cinnamon sugar coating. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Notes
These biscuits pair wonderfully with fresh fruit, honey, or a light drizzle of maple syrup. You can also dust them lightly with powdered sugar before serving.
