<\/figure>\n\n\n\nI like to make monkey bread<\/a> as a special, fun-to-eat breakfast treat on weekends. The whole family loves it and whenever I serve it up to guests they ask for a copy of the recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The pull-apart bread is also a must-have for special occasions and on holiday mornings. Especially Christmas morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just look at all that gooey sauce–so yummy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n “This was an amazing recipe. I made it this week to see if it was something I wanted to bring to a Christmas brunch. I will definitely be making it. Thanks for sharing this recipe! Happy Holidays!” If you are a fan of sweet breakfast treats like my family, be sure to give my blueberry french toast casserole<\/a> and breakfast cookies <\/a>a try. They are both frequently requested and enjoyed in our house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It isn’t known for certain how monkey bread got its name. It has been suggested that the name could have been given because the bread resembles a barrel of monkeys or because of how it is pulled apart and eaten, similar to how monkeys groom one another. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n This section includes ingredient notes and substitution options. Get all measurements, ingredients, and instructions in the printable recipe card at the end of this post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With only 5 ingredients, this pull-apart sticky bread is super easy to make!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here is what you will need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Yes! If you don’t have a bundt pan or fluted tube pan you can make the recipe in a 9 x 13 baking dish or in two 9 x 5 loaf pans. However, it will take less time to cook so I would start checking on it after 20 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n This section shows you how to make the recipe with step-by-step photos and instructions. For the full printable recipe, see the recipe card below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 1:<\/strong> Cut each biscuit into quarters, toss in the cinnamon sugar mixture, and place in a greased bundt pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 2:<\/strong> Combine melted butter and brown sugar. Pour the butter mixture over the biscuit pieces in the pan. It will look like way too much sauce but don’t worry, it’s going to be amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Step 3:<\/strong> Bake to golden brown as directed in the recipe card below. Cool for 10 minutes then turn onto a plate and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use your fingers to pull apart the bite-size pieces of dough to eat. Yes, it will be sticky and messy, but it is so worth it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To easily remove monkey bread from the pan allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, place a large plate on top of the bundt pan and turn it over to release it from the pan and transfer it onto a plate or serving platter. If it doesn’t come right out try tapping on the bottom of the bundt pan to help it release. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n Countertop:<\/strong> Delicious monkey bread can be stored for a couple of days at room temperature. Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds and enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Freezer<\/strong>: For longer storage, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and foil and freeze for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To make monkey bread ahead, prep it up to the point that you would bake it, then wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. The next day, allow it to come to room temperature before baking or add a few minutes to the bake time.<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat readers are saying<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
