Equipment

  • bundt pan
  • nonstick spray

Ingredients

  • 2 cans (16.3 oz) refrigerated original biscuits
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cups brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and spray a bundt pan with nonstick spray. 
  • Open the biscuit cans and cut each biscuit into quarters. 
  • Combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a large freezer or paper bag. 
  • Place 1/2 of the biscuit quarters into the bag and shake to mix evenly. Place the sugar coated biscuit quarters in the bundt pan. Repeat with the remaining biscuit quarters.
  • Combine the melted butter and brown sugar. Mix well for about 40 seconds. It should be nice and thick like caramel.
  • Pour the brown sugar mixture all over the biscuits. Bake uncovered for 37-40 minutes.
  • Once it's done baking, allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes and then turn it over onto a plate and enjoy! 

Notes

  • Make sure to mix the brown sugar and melted butter well!
  • If you enjoy monkey bread on the softer side, only bake for 35-37 minutes. If you like it well done, bake for 40-45 minutes. Every oven is different, so please keep that in mind. 
  • Coat each biscuit quarter generously with the sugar cinnamon mixture.
  • If there's any sugar cinnamon mixture leftover, simply pour it over the biscuits.
  • You can modify this recipe to your liking, want to add some crunch? Throw in pecans or walnuts!
