Cinnamon Biscuits are rich, buttery biscuits that’s filled with a cinnamon filling. These biscuits taste much like cinnamon rolls but require no wait time to allow for them to rise. Additionally, they are easily made with pantry staples you’re sure to have.
Sharing a great Cinnamon Biscuits recipe with you today, but first a little story…
Have you ever done something totally embarrassing?
I guess since you’re human you have. Just maybe you didn’t blog about it for the entire world to know the depths of your goofiness… but, oh well, here goes. I’m sure if you’re a regular follower or know me personally, you already know how goofy I am! At this point, I’m kind of giggling about it… kind of.
Wait, what?!
Today a ran by our local home-town grocery store, not the big superstore where no one would have even noticed you unless you had purple hair, stripper shorts, and pleather thigh-high boots. Admit it, you’ve all seen the funny pics of People of Wal-Mart….
I digress. I ran into the small home-town grocery store where Bob (that’s his real name, not Billy Joe Jim Bob… just Bob) greets me, asks about the kids and if I’ll be having steak again this week. You see, we always get a ‘his’ and ‘hers’ fillet, no bacon, for weekend grilling.
‘Kids are good. Yes, sir, I’d like the regular’ and proceed to the Meat Market. Now, there are 9 guys that work in the meat market. They nod. I nod. I continue shopping… shopping… shopping…looking (I’m picky about meat) and I notice they’re all looking at me….. looking…. staring…. I’m feeling pretty good at this point. I thought I looked super cute today, I guess I do. I catch my reflection in the window. Good hair. Still got makeup on. Cool! I still may have it….
They bring the steaks, I collect a couple of other items and check out, feeling pretty good about myself. I sashay to the car and get in, grab the seat belt, and *whoa* my fly is open!!! All the way open!!! I mean, seriously!!!! O-P-E-N!!
omgoodness, my self-confidence…shattered! Not only that, I can not, will not, go back to that store until I’m quite sure there has been a complete turnover in employees!
I’m drowning my embarrassment in these quick and easy Cinnamon Biscuits, because, well, I just don’t know what else to do! zip…..

I brought cinnamon biscuits to our family gathering yesterday, it was a crowd favorite! And, your story made me laugh so hard, it reminds me of my own embarrassing moments. 😂

Hi
These biscuits sound wonderful.
I was just wondering what to do with the other 2 T. of butter.
You say to use 2 T. in the cinnamon sugar mixture and don’t say what to do with the other 2.
Mary-andering Creatively says
Funny. I am visiting from the Humor Me hop. I loved your story. Yes, embarrassing. But your biscuits are anything but delicious and I can’t wait to try them.
Paula says
Thank you! I love anything w/ cinnamon! Thanks for visiting!
Smack Of Ham says
I think the most embarrassing things that happen to me involve my children placing stickers on my clothes without me realizing it – the stickers on the hind-end are usually the ones I don’t see…
Paula says
lol! fortunately, that hasn’t happened to me. Thanks for visitin, headed to your blog now!
Terrye says
PMc – we must be relatives. 😀 Great story and those biscuits look heavenly!

Julie Chenell DeNeen says
I write about embarrassing crap all the time so you are not alone! Those do look really good!
Paula says
lol, might as well laugh at yourself!
Rachel G says
Oh man!! I cringe at the very thought…wardrobe malfunctions are the worst. I know I have embarrassing moments, but I always repress the memory immediately.
Paula says
I try to repress, might as well laugh instead of cry 🙂 Thanks for visiting!
kerry b says
I have too many to even mention. Its normal anymore. I had a pair of pants whose zipper was broken so I just got used to people looking at my grouch. they were comfy.
Those biscuits do look delish! I must try that recipe!
Paula says
lol!! too funny, I don’t think I could knowingly be unzipped. Thanks for visiting.
Emily says
Visiting from the humor blog hop…I can understand your embarrassment, but I say you hold your head up high and go back to that store…or if that’s too much to handle, go in wearing dark sunglasses and a disguise. 🙂 P.S. The biscuits look/sound yummy!
Paula says
lol, I’ll do the sunglasses! Thanks for visiting!
The Weary Chef says
Biscuits make everything better, even embarrassing fly mishaps. I LOVE your old school corningware. I was recently thinking about picking up some pieces for myself. I don't think I can get any from my mom since she still uses them, but I could find some at an antique store and pretend they are the ones I grew up with.
April @ The 21st Century Housewife says

Classic NYer says
Open fly? That's all? I was hoping for something truly scandalous, like lipstick on the teeth or that one lone curler left in the back…
happy SITS day, ma! (So when are you inviting me over for biscuits?)
Jean says
Looks good. Sorry about the mishap. Haven't we ALL had those moments, though?!? Happy SITS day!
Martha Woods says
Those look so yummy! Wow, how embarrassing…but I think we've all had a similar episode! Something in the teeth, etc. At least you didn't realize it until you were in the car, I think it would be worse to realize it midway through the trip!
Stopped by from SITS! <3
xtraleo says
Why must thou tempt me with these baked good? Why? Here I am fasting from sweets and then you're featured! I'm near my breaking point. These look very good. Happy SITS Day!
Tracy Larson says
These look great! Something I can make with the kids and they will eat them. Yum! Enjoy your SITS day. I'll be back!
KH Smith says
Gotta try recipe. Hilarious story. I have a recurring dream/nightmare that I unknowingly walk around naked all day and no one tells me.
KH Smith says
Must try recipe! Your story is hilarious. I have a recurring dream/nightmare that I walk around all day naked and no one tells me. 🙂
Laura Day says
Those biscuits look so good. Although I do not bake/cook that often, I have pinned your biscuits and added it to the collection of recipes that I want to try…one day!
I live in Pearl, MS. In my years of blogging, I have not come across very many Mississippi bloggers, but I knew they were out there.
Congrats on your SITS Day!
Unknown says
Happy SITS day! Ha – I love having a neighborhood grocery store again but the downside – that quick trip to the store when you just hope that you won't see anyone you know cuz you're wearing the ugliest clothes, no make-up, hair not done etc and you don't even make it past the first display by the door before 3 people greet you that you haven't seen in years – and surprisingly, none of them say: Wow you're looking great Beth…
Most excitement those guys will ever get working behind the meat counter… 🙂
Julie Jordan Scott says
Ohmigawsh! I feel your embarrassment rushing to cover my ever pinker face. Blush blush blush….
I remember when I worked for a publishing house. I was giving a sales pitch and realized about 25% in my top had come unbuttoned in a place where they could get quite a nice, curvy show. No, I didn't do it on purpose but I did get the sale! Now I need to go make some simple white rice with salt and butter. My favorite “after embarrassment” food! LOL
Mothering From Scratch says
{Melinda} I'm so sorry!! 🙂 When I was in 7th grade, I was on the school bus and I had a spiral notebook on my lap. The end of the spiral caught the hem of my dress — unbeknownst to me — and so I walked up to school with my hem at my waist. It was a very LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG day. 🙂 And there was no waiting to go back to school!! Aack!
Hope you have a great SITS Day!

Chris Carter says
That is HILARIOUS!!!! But perhaps they didn't even notice your fly because they were so enamored with your beauty!!!?? lets go with that! lol Happy SITS day!!
Rabia says
Easy and delicious! My kind of recipe!!
Nicole Nenninger says
Visiting from SITS. Yikes! Oh well, I guess embarrassing things like that happens. I was recently in a restaurant and a lady had inadvertently tucked her dress into her pantyhose/underwear. I think the onlooker feels bad more than anything. Even though it puts me in a funky position, I prefer to be the person to tell them instead of letting them walk around, and then cringing later. Anyway, looks like you made the best of it by creating a little comfort food for yourself :).
Sheila Skillingstead says
I've never heard of cinnamon biscuits. Find a meat market with women butchers. They would have helped a SIstah. Enjoy your SITS Day.
Denise Bertacchi says
Looks good–I'm sure the boys want me to try to make these. Happy SITS Day!
Bev Feldman says
I've never seen cinnamon biscuits before, they look delish (and a wonderful way to take your mind off am embarrassing moment!)
Nellie says
These look so yummy!! That was pretty embarrassing but look on the bright side at least it wasn't a boob 🙂 enjoy your SITS day!
Kim@Co-Pilot Mom says

Paula Jones says
So glad you found me! I'm following you on GFC and Pinterest now. I so wanted to die when it happened, but find it pretty funny now. Life happens! 🙂 I hope you like the Cinnamon Biscuits.
Pam Fields says
These look so good! I will have to give them a try. Don't sweat the open fly too much. Seriously. I told a young friend not too long ago that life sure has gotten easier since I turned 40, now 47. I am lots less worried about what others think, like myself more and have learned to laugh a lot more at myself. Embarrassing, yes, but not the end of the world. Hey, at least you aren't the water polo player whose entire bare boob was revealed on NBC! 😉 Pinned for future baking and I am your newest google follower.
Paula Jones says
Thanks guys! I love them! Making again tomorrow for my kidlets who start school!
Asilia says
