59 Reviews of Monkey Bread

From: Rushed 4 Time

This is a wonderful recipe! I made it just a short while ago, and it's almost all gone, even though there are only two of us here! I did notice that using just a regular bundt pan, I had room for another can's worth of biscuits, so if you're making this for a crowd, you may want to use 4 cans. Also, I upped the sugar in the cinnamon sugar mix to 1 cup, put both in a ziplock, and put in one can of biscuits (after quartering each biscuit) and shook it around. Made coating easier and neater to do. Definitely let the cake cool a bit before removing from bundt pan, or the cake will collapse (I learned the hard way!). Was so thrilled to find another YOWZA recipe, as in "Yowza, this is good stuff!"

    I had never heard of Monkey Bread. It's really very good! Made it for breakfast for my fellow coworkers. If I hadn't snitched a couple of pieces for myself before I brought it in, I wouldn't have gotten any! It was gone in seconds!

    this comment is for JimnLyss .....the instructions do not say so, but you are supposed to turn the pan over into a plate for serving, that way the caramel sauce pours down onto the biscuits. You may not have done so since you made it in little loaf pans. If you look at the photo made with the bundt pan, you will see the nuts and caramel sauce on top. :o)

    I love this recipe!!!! It is so good. I decided to use a 9 X 13 and followed the directions the same. It was awesome! Some of the sauce did stay on the bottom of the dish so I just mixed it all so it was coated. I will definately be making it again and again and again...

    This is a fabulous recipe. It's easy and delicious. I didn't change a thing, except I didn't add the nuts because I was taking it to a potluck. I made it in a 9x13 pan (as suggested by another reviewer) and it travels really well!! thanks so much!!! I had three people ask for the recipe!

    What a wonderful treat! I looked through all of the other recipes and thought this one sounded the best. The more cinnamon the better and brown sugar and butter make good things GREAT! Thanks for the recipe! Easy and yummy!

    These are just plain fun and so yummy, flaky, sweet and nutty. The fun of Monkey Bread is pulling off biscuits to eat. A great brunch item.

    OMG, this is so good. Kids loved it and made my house smell wonderful. I used 4 cans of biscuits, a little more than a cup of sugar and more cinnamon to coat the biscuits. Also only used 1/2 cup butter with the 1 cup brown sugar. Was more than enough for icing. My kids definitely think this is a keeper.

    Thi sis the version of Monkey Bread that is my favorite! The others don't have the brown sugar for pouring over the biscuits..it makes a difference.
