Description

A delightful pull-apart bread with a sweet, cinnamon flavor perfect for holiday celebrations.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans of refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan thoroughly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  3. Cut each biscuit into quarters and roll each piece in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  4. Layer the coated biscuit pieces in the bundt pan, sprinkling chopped nuts in between layers if using.
  5. In a saucepan, melt the butter with the brown sugar until it boils, then pour over the biscuit layers.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate.
  8. Whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract and drizzle over the bread before serving.

Notes

For extra gooiness, consider adding more brown sugar or maple syrup to the butter mixture. You can prepare the biscuit pieces the night before and refrigerate them.
