  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Gradually combine the dry mixture into the wet mixture until just incorporated.
  6. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl for the cinnamon-sugar coating.
  8. Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls and coat them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  9. Place the coated balls on the baking sheet, spacing them 2 inches apart.
