Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can canned biscuits (soft, pillowy dough)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon (natural)
  • 1/4 cup plant-based butter (natural), melted
  • 1 tablespoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar (natural)
  • 2–3 tablespoons plant-based milk (natural)
  • 1/4 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Optional Variations

  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • 1/3 cup dried cranberries or raisins
  • 1/3 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom or nutmeg
  • Zest of 1 orange or lemon

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough Pieces: Open the canned biscuits and separate them gently. Cut each biscuit into quarters to create bite-sized pieces that will absorb the flavors evenly.
  2. Mix the Cinnamon Sugar: In a bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon (natural). This mixture will coat each dough piece, creating the signature sweet crust.
  3. Coat the Dough: Melt the plant-based butter (natural) and stir in the vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural) and apple cider vinegar. Dip each biscuit piece into this mixture, then roll in the cinnamon sugar blend until fully coated.
  4. Assemble in the Pan: Grease a bundt pan or deep baking dish thoroughly. Layer the coated dough pieces evenly in the pan so they stick together while baking, allowing for perfect pull-apart sections.
  5. Bake Until Golden: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the assembled dough for 30-35 minutes until the bread is puffed, golden brown, and the sugar mixture has caramelized beautifully.
  6. Add the Glaze: While the bread is baking or cooling slightly, combine powdered sugar, plant-based milk (natural), and natural gelling agent to prepare a smooth glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the warm bread as a finishing touch.

Notes

  • Use fresh canned biscuits and check expiration for best rise and texture.
  • Apply just enough butter mixture to help the sugar stick without sogginess.
  • Grease the pan thoroughly to ease removal and prevent sticking.
  • Cut biscuit pieces to similar sizes to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Allow bread to cool slightly in the pan before flipping to keep it intact.
