While my favorite will always be the 3 ingredient buttermilk biscuits, these come in a close second due to their simplicity. Transforming flaky canned biscuits into adorable Easter bunny faces adds a touch of whimsy to the holiday.
These treats are not just cute but also a delicious addition to your Easter brunch or dessert spread. With minimal effort, you can turn ordinary biscuit dough into bunny faces that will bring joy to everyone.
While we offer various homemade biscuit recipes like Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuits, Baking Powder Biscuits, and this Big Fluffy Scones Recipe, canned biscuits offer convenience that's hard to beat when you're short on time.

🥘 Ingredients
Ingredient Notes:
Canned Biscuits- You will need an even number of canned biscuits to make the head and ears of the bunny. If you still have biscuits, try our Air Fryer Canned Biscuits and Air Fryer Biscuit Donuts.
M&Ms- Colorful red M&Ms will make the noses on the bunnies, but feel free to use other colors for a fun and unique spin. Or, just eat the other M&Ms while you wait for these to bake. (You can also save some as toppings for this Cinnamon Streusel Dessert Pizza).
Chocolate Chips- To make the eyes on our bunnies, you'll want to use some chocolate chips.
Almond Slivers- Slivered almonds make great whiskers for the bunnies because everyone knows that bunnies have long whiskers.

🔪 Instructions for Easter Bunny Biscuits
Step 1: Open your can of biscuits and separate them so that they are no longer stuck together. Set half of them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, evenly spaced. Set aside.
Step 2: Place half of the biscuits in front of you on a cutting board.
Step 3: Using a sharp knife or clean scissors (if the kids are helping) cut the biscuits in half.
Step 4: Place the sliced halves next to the biscuits on the baking sheet so that the bottoms of the halves are resting against the whole one.
Step 5: Add your bunny face. Place two chocolate chips for the eyes, one red M&M for the nose, and 2 slivered almonds on each side of the nose for the whiskers.
Step 6: Repeat for all of the bunnies.
Step 7: Bake in the oven at 350 degrees F for 13 minutes or as directed by your can of biscuits.
Serve and enjoy!
🍴 Recipe Tips
- For this recipe, any canned biscuits will do, whether they're store-brand, small, butter flavored, etc. We prefer Grands Flaky Layers biscuits, but you can choose your favorite.
- Important tip: You'll need an even number of biscuits. For example, if your can has 5 biscuits, you'll need 2 cans (totaling 10 biscuits) to make 5 bunnies.
- Baking time and temperature vary depending on the biscuit brand. Follow the instructions on the can—my biscuits bake at 350°F for 13-16 minutes, but yours might require different settings to ensure they're perfectly cooked.
💭 Recipe FAQs
Yes, you can use veggies like shredded carrots for the whiskers, diced mushrooms for the nose, black sliced olives for the eyes. These are just some examples though and you can really get creative with whatever you want including broccoli florets and cherry tomatoes.
These biscuits are best when enjoyed fresh and hot out of the oven but you can easily get them to last 2-3 days in an airtight container at room temperature. I recommend laying them in a flat container to keep the ears from falling off.
These bunnies would be great as-is for a simple snack but you can also add some chocolate gravy over the top for a sweeter mealtime experience. Serve them up as a dessert or breakfast and I'm sure there will be no complaints.
