Ingredients
Scale
Dough:
- 3 cans (7.5 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough
Cinnamon Sugar Coating:
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Brown Sugar Glaze:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Additional:
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan with nonstick spray.
- Cut and Coat: Cut each biscuit into quarters. In a large zip-top bag, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. Add the biscuit pieces in batches and shake to coat evenly. Place the coated biscuit pieces into the prepared bundt pan.
- Make the Glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar until fully combined and bubbling, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Pour the mixture evenly over the biscuit pieces.
- Bake: Bake for 35–40 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Let cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a plate. Serve warm and enjoy!
