Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring

On the weekends I try to make breakfast a little more special than just cereal or toast.  Since this past weekend was General Conference, I normally make cinnamon/caramel rolls, however I was feeling lazy and wanted to make something easier, but still taste as yummy as caramel rolls and these fit the bill.  You can get this in the oven within 5 minutes and on the table 30 minutes later.  It's wonderful and super easy!

Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring

1.5-2 tubes Pillsbury Grands buttermilk biscuits 

4 Tbsp. melted butter

3/4 cups pancake syrup

2/3 cups packed light brown sugar

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 cups nuts (optional)

Instructions:

Spray a fluted pan with non-stick spray.  Combine the melted butter and syrup in a small bowl and set aside.  In another bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts (if desired).  Place about half of the syrup mixture in the bottom of the pan and then sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture on top.  Lay the biscuits on the bottom of the pan, overlapping edges (closely together) to form a ring.  Top with remaining syrup and sugar mixtures.  Bake at 350 degrees for about 30-40 minutes or until golden brown.  The top might brown quickly but remember you need to get the bottom cook through and not doughy.  Cool for 1 minute in the pan, then invert onto a serving platter and enjoy!
