Expert Tips and Tricks

  • Use pre-made dough: For convenience, use store-bought biscuit or pizza dough.

  • Even coating: Roll the dough balls evenly in the cinnamon-sugar mixture for a consistent flavor.
  • Cool slightly: Allow the bread bombs to cool slightly before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting.

Recipe Variations and Possible Substitutions

  • Different fillings: Add chopped nuts, raisins, or chocolate chips to the filling for extra flavor and texture.
  • Gluten-free option: Use gluten-free dough for a gluten-free version.
  • Dairy-free option: Substitute butter and cream cheese with dairy-free alternatives.

Storage and Reheating Tips

  • Room temperature: Store the bread bombs in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Icing
