Total Time: 1 hrs 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin spice
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your bread bakes evenly and thoroughly.
- Prepare a 9x5-inch loaf pan by greasing it with non-stick cooking spray or butter to prevent the bread from sticking.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sugar, and pumpkin spice. Stir until the ingredients are well combined, creating a smooth mixture.
- Open the cans of refrigerated biscuit dough and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters for easier handling and layering.
- In a separate bowl, melt the butter. Dip each quartered biscuit piece into the melted butter, ensuring they are fully coated.
- Take the butter-coated biscuit pieces and roll them in the pumpkin mixture, making sure they are well covered. Stack the coated pieces in the greased loaf pan, layering them as you go.
- Once all the biscuit pieces are stacked in the loaf pan, gently press them down to ensure they are compacted together.
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- While the bread is baking, prepare the vanilla glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency by adding more milk if necessary.
- Once the bread is done baking, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
- After cooling, carefully remove the bread from the pan and place it on a wire rack or serving platter.
- Drizzle the vanilla glaze over the warm pull-apart bread, allowing it to soak into the crevices for added sweetness.
- Serve the Pumpkin Spice Pull Apart Bread warm, and enjoy this delightful treat with family and friends!
Tips
- Use fresh, high-quality pumpkin spice for the most vibrant flavor profile.
- Ensure your biscuit dough is cold when cutting and coating for the best texture.
- Don't overmix the pumpkin mixture to keep the bread light and fluffy.
- For extra richness, use melted brown butter instead of regular melted butter.
- Check the bread's doneness by inserting a toothpick - it should come out clean.
- Let the bread cool slightly before glazing to prevent the sugar from becoming too runny.
- For a more decadent version, sprinkle chopped pecans between layers.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat briefly before serving for maximum softness.
