Come on over, breakfast is ready!
Have you had Monkey Bread? Sure you have. It's been around for no less than 200 years, but it is one of the yummiest things e-ver. Well, it's what's for breakfast at the Hanks' house this morning. Add a cup of coffee with cinnamon hazelnut creamer and you have yourself a lovely little piece of heaven. (Mia and Ethan say milk and Ella Kate says to make it soy, please!)
You probably have your own version of this, but I am feeling the need to share this glorious breakfast item with you today. Warning: any "little monkeys" you have around your house will be swinging from the trees for the rest of the day after partaking. That's why we thought it a great idea to have a portrait session later this morning.
Monkey Bread
3 packages of buttermilk biscuit tubes
1 cup sugar (divided)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup sugar (divided)
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 cup butter
1/2 cup brown sugar
Take 3 packages of buttermilk biscuit tubes (10 per roll) and cut each roll into 4 pieces. Drop roll pieces into 1 cup sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Drop sugar-coated pieces into a well buttered Bundt pan (don't squish roll pieces when placing them in the Bundt pan).
Put 1/2 cup of the left-over sugar/cinnamon mix and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar and 1 cup of butter (2 sticks) into a small saucepan.
Bring this mixture just to a boil; remove from heat immediately. Carefully drizzle over the roll pieces.
Bake at 350°F for 30 minutes.
Cool slightly in an upright position, then tip pan over onto a plate to remove monkey pull-apart bread.

I love that stuff... take it to SS when I get a chance. HOWEVER, my recipe calls for bread sitting overnight... so I like yours... we may have that at a table near you SOON!
My first experience of Monkey Bread was in highschool at an after prom party..way late in the night. It was my fondest memory of that prom. Don't tell Bobby that. Don't get me wrong, going to prom with him was a dream.....but the monkey bread mmmmmmmmm.
Ahhhh...memories of Aunt Heather's house last summer. (Oh yeh, it's Uncle Shawn's house too but he didn't cook us Monkey Bread!:) ~H, B, C and E
