Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 3 (10) ounce cans non-flaky buttermilk biscuits cut in quarters
  • 1 cup butter
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup pecans

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a large ziplock bag or bowl. Add the quartered biscuits, and coat them with the sugar mixture. Separate the dough pieces if they begin to stick together.
    1 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 3 (10) ounce cans non-flaky buttermilk biscuits
  • In a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the butter, brown sugar, and heavy cream. Once melted, stir to combine until it resembles a caramel sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer, and remove the pan from heat. Add the pecans.
    1 cup butter, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1 cup pecans
  • Place 1/3 of the caramel sauce at the bottom of a bundt pan. Place 1/2 of the biscuits. Repeat layers ending with the caramel sauce.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes. (If the top is browning too fast in the oven, cover lightly with tin foil.) NOTE: To prevent the caramel from overflowing and creating a mess, place a baking sheet underneath the bundt pan.
  • Cool for 10-15 minutes. Then, invert the baked monkey bread onto a plate.
