A tradition in our home on Thanksgiving and Christmas morning.  Ingredients 2 packages Grands buttermilk biscuits 1 cup sugar 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1/2 cup butter 1 cup brown sugar (packed) Directions   Preheat oven to 350 degrees  Grease one 9 or 10 inch Bundt( pan.

Bake at 350 degrees  for 35 minutes.  Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a plate.

Ingredients: Pastry for 2 pie crust pie 1 cup sugar 1 teaspoon cinnamon (I use more) 4 Tablespoons flour dash of salt 6 cups thinly sliced, pared Granny Smith apples 2 Tablespoons butter Slice the apples into a large bowl. In small bowl, mix the cinnamon, sugar, salt, and flour. Add the sugar mixture to the apples in a large bowl and toss to coat evenly.  Let them sit while you prepare the pie pan.

Bake at 450 degrees for about 45 minutes or until crust is golden and apples are tender.
