This pull apart bread with refrigerated biscuits pairs well with soup for the perfect lunch or dinner. With a garlic butter coating there is no active dry yeast required which means it can be prepped and baked in 45 minutes.
I love homemade meals but we’re a busy family of 5 and that doesn’t always happen. I love using refrigerated biscuits to make all sorts of side dishes so one weekend I experimented with making a garlic pull apart and it was a huge hit.
Pull Apart Bread with Refrigerated Biscuits
Let me show you how easy this meal is to throw together, and how you can enjoy it at home too. 😉 Who doesn’t love soup for dinner with rolls right??!! Especially on those chilly days when it looks like it is going to snow and all you want to do is throw on jammies around 5pm and enjoy a warm dinner with your kiddos. Yep, that would be me! OH You Too??!! We could definitely be friends then. 😉
We made this is a loaf pan but you could use the same directions below except put into a muffin pan to make pull apart rolls instead! The only difference would be the cook time which would be faster but the same buttery flavor. You can even make a sweet version of this in a bundt pan with our 5 ingredient monkey bread.
Ingredient Notes
Pull apart bread with biscuits uses the regular size of biscuits, NOT Grands to fit like we did in this size pan. If you used the larger versions it may overflow, or it would be better to use an 8×8 pan.
You do want something to moisten them up and add flavor so your best bet is a mixture of melted butter and garlic + any seasonings you love. You don’t want it to be too warm so melt in your microwave and then allow to cool for a few minutes before folding together (or the biscuit pieces will melt and get ooey gooey).
When I am baking this I will start our Ninja Foodi spaghetti at the same time so everything is ready together.
Yes you can make homemade bread or our easy roll recipe with yeast but if you’re in a hurry this is great. Just bake at 350 degrees quickly while the rest of your meal is finishing up and you’re ready. Our slow cooker no yeast rolls are an easy choice too.
Variations
Now beyond this I have tweaked the flavors over the years. It is easy to do once you get the hang of the basic steps really. I mean you can keep the pieces whole and stack them with cheese(s) like we did with our pizza pull apart bread too.
Want a sweeter side of things? Our gooey apple cinnamon pull apart bread is a perfect treat made similarly, or you can just use the same butter but with sugar and cinnamon instead.
Pull Apart Bread Recipe
Equipment
- 1 9×5 loaf pan
- 1 Bowl
Ingredients
- 2 tubes refrigerated biscuits, Great Value, 10 count, found in refrigerated section of Walmart
- 1 tbsp parsley, dried or fresh
- 1 sprig thyme
- 1 tbsp garlic, minced, I use jarred
- 1/4 tsp garlic salt
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Cut each biscuit into 4 equal pieces and put into a bowl.
- Sprinkle in your parsley, thyme, minced garlic, garlic salt & powder and gently mix together.
- Melt your butter and pour over your biscuit pieces. Gently stir to coat pieces but not so much that biscuits start to break apart or stick together.
- Put a piece of parchment paper into a loaf pan or spray with non stick spray.
- Dump your coated refrigerated biscuit mixture into your loaf pan. Bake for 28-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
- Once you take it out to cool a bit warm up your soups, then pull apart some of your garlic bread loaf and serve that on the side or drop a few right into the soup!

If you want to make a pull apart bread bundt pan style, try our bacon egg and cheese breakfast bundt cake here. frozen rolls in air fryer with this mixture put into silicone muffin cups are a great way to bake these too.
It’s kinda’ like a savory monkey bread! Just grab a bowl and a loaf pan and you’re set y’all!
For more of a homemade side we love making Challah bread that takes about 30 minutes or until golden brown to bake. A sweeter side dish.
1. Soup of course!
2. Olive oil and balsamic vinegar
3. Melted garlic remaining butter is good. Just combine equal parts of butter with minced garlic and melt for this easy butter mixture
4. We love it served this with our baked spaghetti too for a winner of a meal!
Make this easy pull apart bread or our easy monkey bread recipe with them! Pour some melted garlic butter on top or dip each bite in it for ultimate YUM.
I made this, maybe my loaf pan was too small. Idk. Anyway I wound up with a lot of doughy bread. The top layer was fine. After I ate the top layer, I removed it from the pan and put it into a regular pan. I am now waiting to see how that works. However, the flavor was great, but in future I will bake it in a different pan. Thanks for the recipe
I am loving this easy bread recipe! Thanks for sharing!
Yeah thanks
