MONKEY BREAD

SERVES 8 (more, if part of a brunch buffet)

The first time I tasted this I had no idea it was made from canned biscuits. It is very good, quick and easy.

INGREDIENTS

3 cans (10 biscuits each can) buttermilk or butter-flavored biscuits

3/4 cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons cinnamon

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick)

1 cup chopped pecans

Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a bundt, loaf, 10-inch tube or other pan of similar size. Cut the biscuits into quarters. Mix together the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Dip each biscuit into sugar mixture to lightly coat. Layer biscuits in pan sprinkling each layer with some of the pecans. Heat the butter and brown sugar over medium-high heat until bubbly and the sugar is dissolved. Pour all over the biscuits. Bake for 35 minutes. Cool slightly on baking rack, about 5 minutes, then turn out onto plate. Serve warm or room temperature. Pull apart into serving pieces, or cut as desired.
