Pumpkin Pie Spice Pull Apart Bread with Pecans
Equipment
- oven
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated buttermilk biscuits 16.3 oz, 8 biscuits
- ½ cup canned 100% pure pumpkin
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice divided
- 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract divided
- ¼ cup chopped pecans plus 1-2 Tablespoons for the topping
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream or whole milk
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 9x5-inch loaf pan with cooking spray or grease with unsalted butter; set aside.
- Separate dough into 8 biscuits. In a medium bowl, combined the canned pumpkin, melted butter, granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Spread pumpkin pie mixture on top of each biscuit. Top each with the chopped pecans.
- Stack biscuits in a pile to form alternating layers of biscuit and pumpkin filling. The very last biscuit that is placed on top should be inverted so that its filling is facing down against the filling of the next-to-last biscuit rather than facing up (i.e. both the top and bottom ends of the stack should be capped by biscuit rather than filling).
- In a loaf pan, tip the stack of biscuits/filling onto its side all in a row--again, if the stacking has been done correctly, the part of the unbaked loaf that touches each end of the pan should be biscuit rather than filling.
- Bake for about 40-45 minutes or until loaf is deep golden brown and center is baked through. Make sure to cover pan loosely with a sheet of aluminum foil 10 minutes before taking the pan out of the oven, to prevent the bread from over-browning.
- Place pan on a rack and let bread cool for about 10 minutes. If necessary, run knife around edges to loosen loaf from pan. Carefully turn pan upside down on a serving platter to release loaf.
- In a small bowl, whisk powdered sugar, heavy cream or milk, and the remaining ½ teaspoon each of pumpkin pie spice and vanilla until smooth and no sugar lumps are seen. Drizzle over loaf. Sprinkle 1-2 Tablespoons of chopped pecan on top. Serve warm and enjoy!
