Pumpkin Monkey Bread with Cream Cheese Glaze

A delightful fall dessert combining pumpkin flavors with gooey monkey bread, topped with a creamy glaze.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 23 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Open the cans of biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters.
  3. Combine the brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Add the quartered biscuit pieces to the cinnamon-sugar mixture and toss until well-coated.
