Health and fertility benefits of Apple Pie Pull-Apart Bread

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 large orange, juiced
1 large green apple, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
1 can (16.3 oz) Pillsbury™ Grands!™ Flaky Layers refrigerated biscuits original or buttermilk

Place oven rack in center of oven; heat oven to 350 °F. Brush loaf pan with small amount from the 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter.
In large bowl, stir together remaining melted butter, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon and juice from 1 large orange until combined. Add 1 large green apple, peeled, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices; toss to combine.
Separate dough from 1 can (16. 3 oz) Pillsbury™ Grands!™ Flaky Layers refrigerated original or buttermilk biscuits into 8 biscuits. Split biscuits in half to make 16 biscuit rounds; place on work surface or cutting board.
Place a few slices of apples with sugar mixture on each biscuit round. Stack 4 topped biscuits on top of each other to make a tower. Repeat to make a total of 4 towers.
