Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard bundt pan with cooking spray.
In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
Cut each biscuit from the cans into quarters.
Add the biscuit pieces to the bag a few at a time, seal the bag, and shake until the pieces are evenly coated in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat until all biscuit pieces are coated.
Optional: Layer half of the chopped pecans at the bottom of the greased bundt pan.
Layer the coated biscuit pieces evenly into the bundt pan, adding the remaining pecans (if using) in between layers.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and vanilla extract, whisking until smooth and combined. Cook for 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Pour the brown sugar mixture evenly over the biscuit pieces in the bundt pan, ensuring all areas are covered.
Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread is cooked through.
Remove the pan from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10 minutes.
Carefully invert the bundt pan onto a large plate or serving platter to release the monkey bread.
Serve warm and let everyone pull apart the gooey, sweet pieces to enjoy!
