Monkey Bread!!

Such an amazing treat! And yes, I do feel like a kid every time I make it but it is so darn good! And it's easy to slice and send along with the hubby for a quick breakfast.


Quick note: don't overfill your baking pan...I did and I should have photographed the mess that was at the bottom of my oven and the plumes of smoke that came out when I opened the oven door. I used an 8.5" bread pan; I should have only used one pack of biscuits. Hey, I'm learning ;)


Ingredients:

4 cans refrigerated biscuits
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/2 sticks butter (3/4 cup)
1/2 cup white sugar
2 Tablespoons cinnamon
Walnut pieces - not sure how much I used

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9-10 inch tube pan (I used a bread pan).

2. Mix white sugar and cinnamon in a medium sized plastic bag. Cut the biscuits into halves or quarters and place six to eight biscuit pieces in the sugar cinnamon mix. Shake well.

3. Arrange pieces in the bottom of the greased pan. Continue layering until all the biscuit pieces are coated and in the pan. If you are using walnuts, place them among the biscuit pieces as you are layering.

4. In a small saucepan, melt the butter with the brown sugar over medium heat. Boil for 1 minute. Pour over the layered biscuits.


5. Bake for 35 minutes. Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a plate. Pull apart and enjoy!
