I use a very small circle cutter and don't put them to where they actually touch. They are close and most bake together, but I like the beans better than the biscuits so I go sparse :-)

Bake in 350 oven for approx 1 hour. I tend to use home cooked beans, so I'm not sure if it's 3 or 4 cans worth. The mixture (with peppers, onions etc added) fills the pan about 2/3 of the way up before the biscuits are added if that helps.

Roll out all leftover biscuit dough very thin. Brush with melted coconut oil, sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and roll up like cinnamon rolls. Slice into snail cookies and bake on a cookie sheet.
