Ingredients
Scale
- 2 16-ounce cans Refrigerated Biscuits (Pillsbury Grands or similar brand)
- 1 tablespoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons orange zest
- 1½ cups fresh cranberries
- 2/3 cup light brown sugar
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Grease a bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon, then mix in the fresh orange zest, and set aside.
- Open and separate the biscuits, then cut each biscuit into four pieces.
- Roll a handful of the cut biscuit pieces into the cinnamon orange sugar mixture at a time, making sure to cover all the dough, then transfer the biscuits to the prepared bundt pan, layering in the cranberries. Repeat until all of the biscuit pieces are covered and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Add the brown sugar, cream, and salt to the melted butter, and bring the mixture to a boil.
- Continue stirring and cooking at a rapid boil for 1 minute, then remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Let the caramel mixture cool for a minute or so, then pour over the cinnamon sugar coated biscuit pieces.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- (Note: if you use a dark bundt pan, you may need to bake for an extra 5-10 minutes)
- Remove the pan from the oven and let it sit for 10 minutes before inverting it to a large plate or serving platter.
- Serve warm, and enjoy!
Notes
- For a richer flavor, add chopped nuts or more orange zest.
- This dish is best served warm with a drizzle of additional heavy cream.
