Monkey Bread with Canned Biscuits
This easy monkey bread is made with canned biscuit dough. It's a delicious, sweet dessert (or breakfast!) It only uses four ingredients. It is doughy and soft inside and the outside is crunchy, sugary, and sweet.
Equipment
- Bundt Pan
Ingredients
- 2 cans biscuits (homestyle or buttermilk) See notes section for sizes. (Each can between 10-11 ounces)
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- cooking spray (to grease pan)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and get out your bundt pan. Grease the bundt pan with cooking spray.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, add the butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Cook in the microwave until butter is melted. Stir together to combine. Set aside.
- Take the two cans of biscuits and open. Cut each biscuit into quarters. Add the biscuits to the brown sugar mixture, making sure each piece is coated.
- Pour the biscuits into the bundt pan, making sure to distribute the pieces equally around the pan.
- Cook in the oven for 35-40 minutes, until the monkey bread is nicely browned and cooked through.
- Let the monkey bread cool on a rack for 15-20 minutes, then turn upside down onto a plate or platter and serve.
Notes
Note - cans of biscuits can come in different sizes. I choose a can that is between 10-11ish ounces (and you will need 2 cans). Not flaky layers or buttery. Something like Grands Southern Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits (5 count).
