How to Make Amazingly Easy Layered Cherry Coffee Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  2. Open and separate the canned biscuits. Press 8 biscuits into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the first layer.
  3. Spread the entire can of cherry pie filling evenly over the biscuit layer.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon.
  5. Pour the cinnamon butter mixture evenly over the cherry filling.
  6. Top with the remaining 8 biscuits, arranging them over the filling. You can break some biscuits apart to fill any gaps.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  8. Let the cake cool slightly in the pan before serving. Dust with powdered sugar (optional). Enjoy!
