A Recipe For Delicious And Easy Monkey Bread
No, it's not made out of monkeys! And it's not made out of bread! This is a recipe for a delicious and very easy to make homemade pull apart treat!
Ingredients:
3 cans of refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 cup of sugar
2 teaspoons of white sugar
1 stick of butter margarine
1 cup of brown sugar
1/2 cup of chopped walnuts (I like a lot of walnuts, so I use more than 1/2 cup)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Grease the pan you are going to use. I use a 2-piece angel food cake pan. Bundt pans work well also.
Mix the cinnamon and sugar together. I use a bowl and stir the biscuit pieces around with a spoon. Sometimes I use a bowl with a lid and shake the pieces. You can also put the sugar and cinnamon in a large plastic resealable bag.
Open the cans of biscuits and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into fourths. Cut them one at a time, don't stack them to cut.
Coat the biscuit quarters in the sugar - cinnamon mix. If using a bowl, spoon them around in the mix, making sure each biscuit is coated. If using a bag, make sure it is sealed and turn the bag around until all the pieces are coated.
Sprinkle some walnuts in the bottom of the greased pan. Drop the biscuit pieces in the pan after coating with the sugar - cinnamon mix. Layer the pieces evenly around the pan, sprinkling walnuts after every layer. Sprinkle walnuts on top of last layer of biscuits.
Melt the butter and brown sugar in a pan. Bring mix to a boil and boil for one minute. Pour over the biscuit pieces.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan.
Any refrigerated biscuit will work, it doesn't have to be buttermilk. You can also add other things with or instead of the walnuts: different kinds of nuts, raisins, etc. This is a very sweet treat! Enjoy!
