Description

A warm, gooey pull-apart monkey bread coated in a rich buttery caramel sauce and studded with crunchy chopped pecans. This delightful treat is perfect for brunch or as a decadent dessert that’s sure to impress guests and satisfy sweet cravings.

Ingredients

Monkey Bread

  • 2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 1 cup pecans, chopped

Coating

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp cinnamon

Caramel Sauce

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.
  2. Cut the biscuits: Cut each biscuit from the cans into quarters to create evenly sized bite pieces.
  3. Coat the biscuit pieces: In a bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon together. Toss the biscuit quarters in this mixture until they are fully coated with cinnamon sugar.
  4. Add pecans to pan: Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly across the bottom of the prepared bundt pan to create a nutty base.
  5. Layer biscuit pieces: Arrange the cinnamon-sugar coated biscuit pieces on top of the pecans in the bundt pan, layering them evenly.
  6. Prepare caramel sauce: In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter and brown sugar, mixing well until smooth and uniform.
  7. Pour caramel over biscuits: Drizzle the butter and brown sugar mixture evenly over the layered biscuit pieces in the bundt pan.
  8. Bake: Place the bundt pan in the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the caramel sauce is bubbly and caramelized.
  9. Cool and invert: Allow the monkey bread to cool for about 10 minutes before inverting the pan onto a serving plate, letting the gooey caramel and pecans coat the top beautifully.

Notes

  • Add a pinch of salt to the caramel sauce mixture to enhance the depth of flavor.
  • For an extra indulgent touch, drizzle warmed additional caramel sauce over the finished monkey bread before serving.
