Ingredients

  • 32.6 ounces refrigerated biscuit dough 2 cans
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoons cinnamon
  • ½ cup Chopped Pecans optional
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ¾ cup butter melted

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine melted butter and brown sugar in a bowl (or small saucepan). Set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a bundt pan or spray with cooking spray.
  3. Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces using kitchen scissors or a pizza cutter. Combine sugar and cinnamon and toss the biscuit pieces in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Shake off excess sugar.
  4. Layer sugared biscuits and pecans in a greased bundt pan. Top with brown sugar and butter topping.
  5. Bake for 35 minutes or until golden. While warm, invert onto a serving platter and serve warm with whipped cream.

Notes

  • Try different nuts or dried fruits (like raisins or dried cranberries) you have on hand.
  • You can toss the biscuit pieces in sugar-cinnamon inside a plastic bag, or use a bowl.
  • Serve with whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, or drizzle with caramel sauce or cream cheese frosting that has been thinned down with some milk.
  • Monkey bread will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days. It also freezes well and will keep in the freezer for 3 months.
