Monkey Bread
Monkey Bread is a pull-apart pastry made by coating biscuit dough quarters in cinnamon sugar and baking them together with a rich butter and brown sugar glaze. The result is a soft, sweet, sticky bread with a crunchy cinnamon-sugar crust. This recipe uses refrigerated biscuit dough for convenience and bakes the pieces in a Bundt pan to create a gooey, shareable treat that's easy to pull apart.

Ingredients
- 3 cans biscuit dough 12 oz, each, refrigerated
- 1 c. white sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 c. butter

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a Bundt pan with non-stick spray, set aside.
- In a plastic bag mix together white sugar and cinnamon.
- Cut biscuits into quarters and place in a plastic bag with the cinnamon sugar mixture. After all the pieces are added give the bag a vigorous shake to coat each piece in cinnamon sugar making sure they don’t clump together. Spread biscuit pieces evenly in the prepared Bundt pan.
- In a small saucepan melt the butter with brown sugar of medium heat. Boil for 1 minute then remove from the stove and pour over the biscuits in the Bundt pan.
