Ingredients

  • 2 cans (16.3 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • ¾ cup (1½ sticks) butter, melted
  • Optional: chopped nuts or raisins for added texture
  • Non-stick cooking spray or butter for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan with non-stick spray or butter.

  5. In a small bowl, mix melted butter and brown sugar. Pour mixture evenly over biscuit pieces.

Notes

For extra texture, try adding chopped pecans or walnuts before baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat before serving.
