How do you reheat these homemade cinnamon roll buttermilk biscuits?

To reheat, place in a 350 degree oven for 5-10 minutes or until warmed through.

*Compound butter is simply softened butter that has been mixed with another flavor. In this case, the cinnamon roll butter compound is just softened butter that’s been mixed with brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. You can find this in the baking aisle of most grocery stores, or you can make your own.

**Icing is not necessary, but if you’d like to add a simple icing, mix together 1 cup powdered sugar with 2-3 tablespoons milk (or more as needed) until smooth. Drizzle over warm biscuits.
