Monkey Bread is something I never grew up eating... It is something that I started to make as an adult for my kids. It's almost like a cinnamon bread but ewwey, gooey, delicious and much more fun to eat!
This weekend like many weekends, my daughter had her best friend sleep over. Instead of chocolate chip pancakes, blueberry muffins, eggs or just going to Dunkin Doughnuts... I decided to make monkey bread and it was a true hit. It was gone in seconds! It's so much fun for kids to eat because they love peeling off the bread and they can even help you make it, it's that easy!
I used frozen dough and dipped it in the mixture of melted butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and 1 small vanilla pudding packet ( not INSTANT)... that is optional.. you can omit that and stick with the butter, sugar and Cinnamon. Also, you can add nuts like pecans and you can use 3 tubes of buttermilk biscuit tubes if you don't want to use the frozen rolls. use this rule of thumb... if you are being organized and are not a morning person.. do it the night before using the frozen rolls and let them rise overnight. If you are doing it in the morning.. use the buttermilk refrigerated biscuit tubes ( they don't need to rise).. remember to cut the biscuit dough in half and roll it in a ball before you drop it in the bunt pan.
Have fun and enjoy this delicious breakfast!
