Refrigerated biscuit dough is the key to making monkey bread easy. As much as I love monkey bread made from scratch, you can’t beat the convenience of a can of biscuits.

Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread {15 Minutes Prep!}

Truth be told, this is one of those recipes where I don’t feel that making it from scratch makes a big difference in the final product.

For this Pillsbury monkey bread recipe, we use a combination of white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and melted butter to create the sticky topping for the biscuits. When you pull a chunk of this bread, gooey ribbons of caramel stretch between pieces. It’s completely irresistible!

The hardest part of the recipe is waiting for the bread to bake. The cinnamon sugar aroma will have everyone running to the kitchen for a piece. While it bakes, brew yourself a pot of coffee and get ready for a delicious breakfast treat. This recipe is so delicious it’s the one The Pioneer Woman bases her monkey bread off of!

Monkey Bread Recipe: How To Make It

This breakfast pastry gets its name from the way monkeys eat–with their fingers! You use your hands to pull apart pieces of the sticky cinnamon sugar coated bread. The process of pinching one piece of fluffy bread and pulling it away from the others is said to look like the way monkeys pick up their food.

If your monkey bread got stuck in the pan and fell apart, it’s likely that you did not grease the pan well before baking. Be sure to coat the inside of the pan generously with baking spray.

Monkey bread can definitely be assembled the night before. Follow all the steps in the recipe below up until baking. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator overnight. When you wake up in the morning, just pop the whole pan in the oven and bake.
