Description

This Christmas Pull-Apart Cinnamon Sugar Bread is a soft and buttery treat layered generously with cinnamon sugar, making it perfect for festive gatherings. It’s easy to prepare using refrigerated biscuit dough, layered in a loaf pan and baked to golden perfection, resulting in a visually appealing and delicious bread that pulls apart effortlessly.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (approximately 8 biscuits)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan to prevent sticking and ensure easy removal of the bread.
  2. Prepare Biscuit Dough: Cut each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces that will layer nicely in the pan.
  3. Coat Dough Pieces: In a mixing bowl, toss the quartered biscuit pieces with granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and melted butter until each piece is well coated, ensuring the cinnamon sugar flavor is evenly distributed.
  4. Layer in Pan: Arrange the coated biscuit pieces evenly in the greased loaf pan, layering them to create the pull-apart effect once baked.
  5. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown on top and cooked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool slightly before serving to let it set and make pulling apart pieces easier.

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter to ensure it coats the biscuit pieces evenly.
  • For a richer flavor, sprinkle a pinch of nutmeg along with the cinnamon.
  • Serve warm for the best pull-apart experience.
  • Optionally, drizzle with icing or glaze for added sweetness.
  • Refrigerated biscuit dough brand and size may vary; use approximately 8 biscuits per can.
