    More tips for you

    1. Don't like the taste of pumpkin? Simply omit the pumpkin puree .
    2. While my monkey bread muffins are made with a flaky muffin, you can use the muffins of your choice. Extra butter may work for you if this is going to be a breakfast treat.

    Expert Tip👉 If you use GRANDS biscuits you'll need to cut them smaller because they rise bigger in the oven.

    Step One: prepare.

    Preheat your oven to 400. Line your muffin cups with liners and then lightly spray them with nonstick.

    Step Two: prepare the biscuits.

    1. Start by using a fork to combine the sugar and one tablespoon of the pumpkin pie spice in a shallow bowl.
    2. Open up the tube of biscuits and seperate the biscuits. Then cut each biscuit into six cubes.
    3. Toss or drag each of the cubes in the sugar mixture.
    4. Evenly distribute the cubes among the prepared muffins cups.

    Step Three: top and bake the muffins.

    1. In a small mixing bowl, mix together the melted butter, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and remaining pumpkin pie spice. You can add a teaspoon or two of water if needed if this seems too thick.
    2. Pour the mixture from the small mixing bowl over the muffins.
    3. Bake the muffins for 12-15 minutes or until they turn golden brown.
    4. Allow the muffins to cool (about 10 minutes) before frosting or serving.
