Description

A sweet, sticky pull-apart bread with caramel and pecans, perfect for brunch or dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • ¾ cup light brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 3 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup chopped pecans
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Two 16-oz tubes of canned biscuits, 8 biscuits in each

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
  2. Add butter and brown sugar to a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk frequently until butter melts and sugar dissolves.
  3. Remove from heat and whisk in honey, heavy cream, water, salt, and vanilla. Stir in pecans and set aside.
  4. In a large zip-top bag, combine sugar and cinnamon. Cut each biscuit into four pieces and add to the bag. Shake gently to coat.
  5. Grease a bundt pan. Pour half the caramel mixture into the pan. Add half the biscuit pieces. Pour remaining caramel over biscuits, then top with remaining biscuits.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden and cooked through. Cool 10 minutes, then invert onto a plate. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Use a 12-cup bundt pan for best results.
  • Discard leftover cinnamon sugar after coating biscuits.
