Sunday Baking: Monkey Bread

Published: August 21, 2011

Monkey bread makes a regular appearance on my brunch table.  Balls of dough are rolled in cinnamon sugar and then baked with butter.  Monkey Bread is an easy baked treat that can put together quickly, especially if you have the pre-made biscuits in a tube.  This is the basic recipe but feel free to add nuts or other flavorings like rum or maple syrup.  Your family and friends will love pulling apart the dough and indulging in that sticky goodness.
