    This recipe is so simple and so good! I used canned biscuit dough and lots of butter for this classic Monkey Bread recipe.

    Monkey Bread is such a classic! It's the perfect sweet treat for breakfast and a personal favorite of mine. It's so simple to make.

    I used canned biscuit dough tossed in cinnamon sugar then layered it with butter and brown sugar. Baked and it's ready to be pulled apart. 

    How to Make Money Bread:

    Step one: Get started by preheating the oven to 350 degrees F. Then prepare a bundt pan ( I love this pan) with a good amount of nonstick cooking spray or with additional butter.

    Step two: Now you want to add granulated sugar and ground cinnamon to a large plastic baggy.

    Cut or tear biscuits into 4ths and place them into the bag. Shake and coat all biscuit pieces with cinnamon sugar. One they are coated go ahead and set aside.

    Step three: Next we will place the butter and brown sugar into a small saucepan. Over medium heat bring to a boil then immediately remove from heat.

    Step four: Now we will use that prepared pan to add in the dough and butter mixture.

    Start by adding a layer of coated biscuits to your bundt pan and spoon in some of your butter and brown sugar sauce.

    Keep doing this until your pan and full and then add all remaining sauce to the top.

    Baking Directions:

    Step five: Now that you are ready to bake place your monkey bread in the preheated oven. Bake for 30-40 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown. Make sure to allow resting in the pan for several minutes before removing it.

    Cooking Tip:

    To remove monkey bread from the pan cover the top with a large place then flip over so the plate is on the bottom.

    Allow it to sit for several minutes then pick up the bundt pan and your monkey bread should be sitting on the plate.

    This can get very sticky so before cooking make sure you are putting a good amount of butter or spray on your pan before baking.
