6. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
7. Optional Glazing: If you’re using icing, you can drizzle it over the top of the warm cinnamon roll bites once they have cooled for a few minutes.
8. Serve: Enjoy your delicious Quick Cinnamon Roll Bites warm!
