Pumpkin Spice Pull Apart Bread with Vanilla Glaze

This easy Pumpkin Spice Pull Apart Bread is a sinfully good fall breakfast or dessert treat! Every layer is full of soft, gooey goodness and tastes just like a cinnamon roll (made MUCH simpler). Try it this weekend!

As far as pumpkin pie goes, I live in a house divided. I’m more take-it-or-leave-it, whereas my husband is more the take-your-slice-too type. He loves it! However, one meal of the day we’re definitely not divided on is breakfast. I look forward to our lazy Saturday mornings whipping up eggs and sizzling bacon. Buttery toast and coffee on the side. Every once in a while, though (especially when we have company), I like to switch out our routine breakfast for something more special.

And, if you love pumpkin, this is the mother of all special breakfasts! Or dessert. Or both. I won’t tell.

True be told, this is one of the best breakfast/dessert/anytime sweets I’ve made this season, only seconded by my phenomenal Apple Pie Pull Apart Bread. Every layer is rich and doughy, with a soft pumpkin-spiced center and slightly crisp edges. Drizzled with a 3-ingredient vanilla glaze, a slice of this is pretty close to heaven on a plate.

It’s a cinch to make, too! Just grab a can of refrigerated biscuits and halve each biscuit. Spoon pumpkin pie filling, butter and cinnamon-sugar over top of each biscuit, and stack up a few at a time. Take care to use pumpkin pie filling, not pumpkin puree – the pie filling has just the right balance of spicy sweetness. Layer the stacks in a loaf pan, and you’re done! Bake until the edges are crisp and your home smells amazing. Drizzle with the glaze while it’s still warm from the oven. Then try not to devour it all.
