Ingredients
- 16.3 oz can Pillsbury Grands Southern Biscuits halved horizontally
- ¼ cup Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cinnadust see note
- ¾ cup pumpkin puree not pumpkin pie filling
- 1 large egg
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- 1 ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Frosting
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter or spritz with non-stick spray a 9”x5” or 8”x4” loaf pan.
- In a small bowl, stir together pumpkin puree, egg, brown sugar, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice.
- Split the biscuits horizontally by gently peeling them apart at the middle layer.
- To build the loaf, tilt the pan at a slightly upward angle on one short end. Create the loaf layers by starting with a biscuit dough halve that’s been coated on both sides with Cinnadust. Lay the dough inside the pan on the short side laying on the counter. Add a tablespoon of the pumpkin spice purée on top of the dough in the center. Repeat these layers, coated biscuit then purée, ending with the last coated biscuit at the top short of the loaf pan.
- Bake 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is cooked through. The pumpkin puree will still be tender, but cooked.
- For the frosting, place cream cheese, powdered sugar, maple syrup, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice in a medium bowl. Mix with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the frosting on top of the golden brown loaf.

Notes
- If you don't have refrigerated biscuit dough or would prefer a homemade dough, this Cinnamon Sugar Pull-Apart Bread recipe from Southern Living has a homemade dough version that you can integrate with my pumpkin filling and frosting.
- If you don't have Cinnadust, simply mix together ½ cup granulated sugar and 1-1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon.
- The glaze can be omitted, if desired.
