Ingredients

Cinnamon Sugar Mixture

  • 1¼ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon (heaping)

Bread and Butter

  • 2 cans southern style buttermilk biscuits (16 biscuits total)
  • 1 cup butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and thoroughly spray a bundt pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Mix: Pour the sugar and cinnamon mixture into a large plastic storage bag.
  3. Cut Biscuits: Remove biscuits from the package and cut each biscuit into quarters for smaller bite-size pieces.
  4. Coat Biscuits: Place 6-7 biscuit pieces at a time into the bag with cinnamon sugar. Seal and shake the bag until the biscuit pieces are well coated with the mixture.
  5. Arrange in Pan: Transfer the coated biscuit pieces into the well-greased bundt pan, layering them evenly.
  6. Melt Butter and Combine: Melt the butter in a large microwave-safe measuring cup. Once melted and warm, pour the remaining sugar mixture into the butter and stir for about 30 seconds until the sugar starts to dissolve.
  7. Pour Butter Mixture: Pour the butter and sugar mixture evenly over the biscuit pieces in the bundt pan. Gently shake the pan to help the butter seep between all the biscuit pieces.
  8. Bake: Bake the monkey bread in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Cool and Serve: Let the monkey bread sit on the counter for 10 minutes after baking to set up. Then carefully invert onto a serving plate to reveal the sticky, delicious treat. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Ensure the bundt pan is well greased to prevent sticking.
  • Use southern style buttermilk biscuits for best texture and flavor.
  • For extra gooeyness, slightly melt the sugar into the butter before pouring over the biscuits.
  • Allow the monkey bread to cool for a few minutes before flipping to avoid burns and help it set.
  • Serve with cream cheese or vanilla icing for added sweetness, if desired.
