This Pumpkin Pie Pull Apart Bread may look impressive, but it seriously couldn't be an easier breakfast or brunch recipe! Need an easy pumpkin recipe for Thanksgiving morning or fall entertaining? Then you need this bread in your life!
Hey everyone! Amanda here from Old House to New Home, sharing my new favorite pumpkin recipe! You know those mugs that say things like "World's Okayest Teacher", well I am a self-proclaimed, "World's Okayest Baker." You see, I love love love to cook, but baking isn't my strong suit. I don't enjoy following recipes, so the precision that baking requires is hard for me.
Once fall rolls arounds, I feel like I have to bake. My oven is seriously calling me, so despite my title of just being an okay baker, I make it work. I am the queen of simple, no skills required baked goods, and this Pumpkin Pull Apart Bread falls into that category. Delicious? Incredibly. Easy? You betcha.
Here's the thing, if you aren't great at baking, then you need to take all the short cuts you can find. I tried to make a similar bread from scratch with yeasted dough last year and I got a big pumpkin flavored ton of bricks that never rose. Well, I went easy this time and used refrigerated biscuit dough and the results are incredible. Soft, tender and fluffy layers of dough, layered with cinnamon, butter, brown sugar, and of course, pumpkin pie filling. And because I just cannot leave well enough alone, I added a pumpkin pie cream cheese drizzle that is just to die for.
If you ever try one of my dessert recipes, then you know that for me, sweeter is not better. I love a semi-sweet baked good, perfect for alongside a cup of coffee. Feel free to add more brown and white sugar across the top of this bread if you like your food on the sweet side!
