- 1 (16.25 ounce) package refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan.
- In a shallow bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
- In another shallow bowl, whisk together the melted butter and vanilla extract.
- Dip each biscuit piece into the melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
- Arrange the coated biscuit pieces in the prepared bundt pan.
- In a small saucepan, melt the 1/2 cup of butter. Stir in the packed brown sugar until smooth.
- Pour the brown sugar mixture evenly over the biscuit pieces in the bundt pan. Sprinkle with chopped pecans, if using.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Let the monkey bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- For extra gooeyness, you can add an extra tablespoon of butter to the brown sugar sauce.
- Ensure the biscuit pieces are fully coated in the cinnamon sugar for the best flavor.
- If you don’t have a bundt pan, you can use a 9×13 inch baking dish. Adjust baking time as needed.
