Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan thoroughly with butter or non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine pumpkin puree, brown sugar, and pumpkin spice. Mix well until the ingredients are completely incorporated and create a smooth, fragrant mixture.
- Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and separate each biscuit. Using your hands, flatten each biscuit into a thin, round shape.
- Spread a thin layer of the pumpkin mixture onto each flattened biscuit, ensuring even coverage.
- Stack the prepared biscuit rounds on top of each other, creating layers of pumpkin-coated dough.
- Cut the stacked biscuits into roughly 1-inch pieces and carefully transfer them into the prepared loaf pan.
- Drizzle caramel sauce over the arranged biscuit pieces, allowing it to seep between the layers.
- Sprinkle chopped pecans evenly across the top of the bread for added crunch and flavor.
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Carefully invert onto a serving plate.
- Serve warm, pulling apart the bread to reveal the gooey caramel and pumpkin layers. Optionally, drizzle additional caramel sauce on top before serving.
Tips
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for fresh pumpkin puree rather than canned if possible. If using canned, make sure to choose 100% pure pumpkin without added sugars or spices.
- Customize the Spice: Feel free to adjust the amount of pumpkin spice according to your taste. You can even add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for an extra flavor kick.
- Layering Technique: When stacking the biscuit rounds, ensure an even distribution of the pumpkin mixture to maximize flavor in every pull-apart piece.
- Caramel Drizzle: For a more decadent treat, warm the caramel sauce slightly before drizzling it over the biscuit layers. This will allow it to seep in even better!
- Serving Suggestions: Serve the bread warm with a side of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert experience.
- Storage Tips: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to enjoy that fresh-baked taste again!
