Monkey Bread

Recipe by Evelyn Marcella Rivera

Turn refrigerated biscuits into the best pull-apart monkey bread with just 5 ingredients. Cinnamon-sugar coated dough baked under a brown sugar caramel — an easy breakfast treat the whole family will love.

  • Total Time50 minutes
  • Yield12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cans refrigerated biscuits
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Liberally grease and flour, or spray with baking spray, a 9-cup bundt pan. Set aside.
  2. Cut the canned biscuits into quarters using a knife or pizza cutter.
  3. In a gallon-size storage bag, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Add the biscuit pieces, then shake and rotate the bag until all the pieces are coated in the cinnamon sugar.
  4. Place the coated biscuit pieces into the bundt pan in an even layer. Set aside. Reserve any extra cinnamon sugar left in the bag.
  5. In a small saucepan, combine the butter and brown sugar. Whisk over medium-low heat until smooth and combined.
  6. Pour the butter-brown sugar mixture evenly over the biscuit pieces. Sprinkle any reserved cinnamon sugar over the top. Bake 35-45 minutes, until the biscuits are fully cooked through and no longer raw inside.
  7. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn the bread out onto a plate or serving dish. Serve warm, pulled apart by hand.

Notes

A 9-cup bundt pan is a must; anything smaller will overflow. Set a baking sheet underneath to catch any spillage. Remove the bread from the pan before it cools completely, or it can stick. Store in an airtight container 2-3 days, or wrap tightly in plastic and foil and freeze up to 3 months. Chopped nuts or raisins make great add-ins.
