Monkey Bread
Description
Monkey Bread combines quartered biscuit dough coated evenly in a cinnamon and white sugar mixture. The coated pieces are placed in a greased Bundt pan where a melted butter and brown sugar mixture is poured over before baking. This baking method creates a soft, tender bread interior with a caramelized glaze and a slightly crispy exterior from the cinnamon sugar. The bread pulls apart easily, making it ideal for casual sharing.
The use of canned biscuit dough makes the recipe straightforward while the buttery brown sugar glaze adds moistness and sweetness. The cinnamon-sugar coating adds warmth and a slight crunch to each bite. Cooling briefly before inverting ensures the bread holds together while the glaze sets slightly.
Serve Monkey Bread warm as a sweet breakfast or snack. Its sticky texture pairs well with coffee or tea and is especially fitting for gatherings where guests can serve themselves by pulling apart pieces.
Ingredients
- 3 cans biscuit dough 12 oz, each, refrigerated
