Ingredients needed:
Biscuits
Granulated sugar
Cinnamon
For the Caramel glaze- you will need:
Light brown sugar
Unsalted butter
Steps to make this recipe:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a ziplock bag and mix until blended. Open biscuits and cut each individual piece into fours.
Toss the dough into the cinnamon sugar mix until well coated no more than four at a time.
Place coated pieces into your bundt pan (the pan does not need to be greased). Make the caramel by first melting the butter for approximately 45 seconds.
Add the brown sugar and stir or whisk until combined. If the mixture is not combining, heat for approximately 45 more seconds and stir until it combines.
Pour the caramel evenly over the bread. Place the bread in the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown.
Start checking on the bread at the 25-minute mark. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 25 minutes before inverting.

I have been making this recipe for thirty-five years or more. The only difference I put vanilla in the butter and brown sugar for flavor. I also use flake biscuit. Everybody loves them...❤️
