Open in Pepper →Sticky Cinnamon Bread You Pull Apart
Monkey bread is the one thing that gets everybody out of bed. A tube of biscuits, cinnamon sugar, butter and brown sugar in the bottom of a pan, and forty minutes later the whole kitchen smells like a bakery.
Cooks on Pepper reach for these on Christmas morning, birthdays, sleepovers, and any Saturday when breakfast needs to feel like a treat without much work.
Every recipe here starts with dough from a can — the classic Monkey Bread with two sugars, Granny's Monkey Bread, a cinnamon roll version, Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread, Monkey Bread Muffins for portioning, and a savory Pepperoni Pizza Monkey Bread with mozzarella.
Quick Tips
- 1
Grease the pan well
Butter or spray every ridge of the Bundt pan, including the center tube, so the caramel doesn't glue the bread down.
- 2
Cut biscuits in quarters
Quarter each biscuit so the pieces are about 1 inch — bigger chunks stay doughy in the middle.
- 3
Shake dough in sugar
Toss the pieces with the cinnamon sugar in a zip-top bag, 8 to 10 at a time, for even coating and less mess.
- 4
Flip it after 10
Let it rest 10 minutes out of the oven, then invert onto a plate so the syrup runs down instead of hardening in the pan.
