Heavenly Cinnamon Bun Pie

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a medium bowl in the microwave.  Spoon about 2 tablespoons into a deep-dish ceramic pie plate or a 9 inch round pan and tip to coat the bottom and sides.

Step 3

In another small bowl, stir together the pecans, cranberries, sugar, and cinnamon.  Spoon about a cup of the mixture into the bottom of the baking dish.

Step 4

Remove biscuits from the tube and divide each one into three layers.  Dip each biscuit layer into the butter and arrange 6 of them in the bottom of the baking dish to cover the nut, cranberry, and sugar layer.

Step 5

Spoon another layer of pecans, cranberries, sugar, and cinnamon on top of the 6 biscuits, and dip the remaining 2 biscuits in melted butter and place them on top.

Step 6

Pour the remainder of the pecans, cranberries, sugar, and cinnamon on the top layer, and pour the rest of the melted butter over the top of the dish.

Step 7

Bake about 25 minutes until biscuits are completely cooked.  Cool in the pan on a cooling rack for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a serving plate. Scrape any nuts and sugar remaining in the bottom of the pan on top of the pile.
