Ingredients

1/4: cup sugar

2: teaspoons ground cinnamon

2: cans (16.3 oz each) Pillsbury® Grands!® Homestyle refrigerated reduced-fat buttermilk biscuits

1: medium tart apple, peeled, thinly sliced

1/2: cup chopped pecans or walnuts

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 12-cup fluted tube cake pan with cooking spray.

Expert Tips

To be sure caramel topping does not ooze out of pan, use a pan that does not have a removable bottom.

Try microwaving caramel container uncovered on High 10 to 15 seconds to make it easier to work with.

Yummmmm!!! Made this for my family and it came out perfect!!
I used 1 tsp of apple pie spice and 1 tsp of ground cinnamon.
It was super was to make and my 4 year old loved helping shaking the biscuits in the bag.
Definitely will make again. Going to try making mini ones in tiny bundt pans for my daughters next school bake sale.
