Preparation

Step 1

About 15 minutes before baking, macerate blueberries with sugar and place biscuit dough cans into freezer.
Preheat oven to the temperature specified on the rolls. Spray a 9-by-9-inch square, round or loaf pan with nonstick spray.
Remove cans from freezer and open. Tear each biscuit into small pieces and place into a large mixing bowl. Pour in 1/2 cup of the maple syrup and add blueberries, brown sugar, 1/2 cup of pecans and 1 tablespoon of the cinnamon and mix well by hand.
When the mixture is well incorporated, pour it into the prepared pan and bake for about 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Microwave the frosting in a glass container for about 20 seconds, or until it can be poured.
Drizzle top of bread with remaining 1/4 cup of maple syrup, then the softened frosting. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of cinnamon and 1/4 cup of pecans.
Cool and remove from the pan and place it on a serving dish. Slice and serve.
