Description

This Caramel-Pecan Monkey Bread is a delightfully gooey, pull-apart bread featuring tender biscuit pieces coated in a buttery caramel sauce and crunchy pecans. Perfectly spiced with cinnamon, this sweet and nutty bread is ideal for brunch gatherings or festive holiday celebrations.

Ingredients

Bread

  • 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough, quartered

Caramel Sauce

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted

Additional Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan thoroughly to ensure the monkey bread doesn’t stick.
  2. Mix Dough with Cinnamon and Pecans: In a large bowl, toss the quartered biscuit dough pieces with the cinnamon and chopped pecans so each piece is evenly coated with spice and nuts.
  3. Layer Dough in Pan: Arrange the coated biscuit dough pieces evenly in the prepared bundt pan, creating a layered mound of dough, pecans, and cinnamon.
  4. Prepare and Pour Caramel Sauce: Combine the melted butter and brown sugar in a separate bowl, mixing until smooth. Pour this caramel mixture evenly over the layered biscuit pieces in the pan, allowing it to seep through.
  5. Bake the Monkey Bread: Place the bundt pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread is cooked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and let the monkey bread cool for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully invert the pan onto a serving plate to release the caramel-pecan bread. Serve warm and enjoy pulling apart the gooey pieces.

Notes

  • To catch any caramel drips during baking, place the bundt pan on a baking sheet.
  • Allow the bread to cool slightly before inverting to prevent the sauce from running too much.
  • This bread is best served warm but can be reheated gently.
  • You can substitute pecans with walnuts or other nuts if preferred.
