Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 large egg
  • 8 Pillsbury Grands Biscuits homestyle
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 2 ounce cream cheese softened
  • 1 tablespoon butter softened
  • 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond or clear vanilla extract optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 9x5 loaf pan with cooking spray.
  • In a small mixing bowl stir together stir together the pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, 14/ teaspoon cinnamon and egg until combined and smooth. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl sift together 1/4 cup white granulated sugar and cinnamon.
  • Pull apart the biscuits from the can, there are 8 biscuits, so pulling them apart in half, you will end up with 16 biscuits.
  • Coat each biscuit on each side with sugar/cinnamon mixture, by pressing each bsicuit into the mixture.
  • Start with one biscuit, coated in sugar and add 1 tablespoon of pumpkin mixture, sprinkle wtih leftover cinnamon and sugar and add pecans. Repeat 3 times, having a stack of 4 biscuits.
  • Repeat with remaining biscuits, pumpkin, pecans and sugar mixture.
  • You will have 4 stacks of 4 biscuits. Top 3 biscuits with pumpkin and pecans. Leave the 4th stack just ending with a biscuit.
  • Place stacks in pan, making sure that each end of the loaf pan has the biscuit up against it, not the pumpkin mixture. Place carefully into the pan.
  • Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the center is cooked through. If it starts to brown too quickly, just cover with a piece of foil and reduce oven tip to 325 degrees (a great Dorothy tip).
  • Make frosting.
  • Beat together cream cheese and melted butter until smooth and there are no cream cheese chunks. Add in powder sugar and cream together by beating on medium-high. Add in milk one teaspoon at a time, until you get your desired consistency.
  • Drizzle frosting over loaf, you can wait until it is cooled (like pictured) or while it is warm, my kids favorite way. Sprinkle with left over pecans and serve.
