Ingredients

Servings
  • cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup butter (½ stick)
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 16 ounces Biscuits cut into bite-sized pieces (1 can, flaky or buttermilk
  • ½ cup pecans optional, chopped

Instructions

  1. Lightly butter a microwave-safe pie pan with a ramekin in the center or spray with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  2. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine the brown sugar and the butter. Melt them in the microwave for about 45-60 seconds. Remove from the microwave and stir together. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon. Roll each piece of the biscuit in the sugar mixture, making sure it is completely covered. You may coat 2 or 3 pieces at a time.
  4. Place each dipped piece into the prepared pie pan. Surround the ramekin with the coated biscuits. Continue coating pieces until all of them are covered.
  5. Drizzle the melted butter mixture over the pieces of dough, trying to cover as much of the bread as possible. Sprinkle with chopped pecans, reserving 1 tablespoon of the pecans to top the bread before pulling them apart.
  6. Place the pie pan in the microwave and cook on high for 5-6 minutes. The bread will rise just a little bit while cooking. Remove from the microwave oven and allow the bread to cool for about two minutes.
  7. Before serving, place a plate over the pie pan and then flip it over onto the plate. Sprinkle the reserved pecans over the top of the bread and then use a large fork to spread the bites around the plate for easier serving.

Notes

  • Storage: Store microwave monkey bread in an airtight container or Ziplock bag for up to 3 days. Re-warm before eating.
