Perfect for a special breakfast treat or a holiday recipe, this Rhodes Rolls Monkey Bread Recipe is so easy made with frozen bread dough. Tender bread, butter, cinnamon and sugar! That’s the way I want to start my day!
During the week, we usually keep our breakfasts pretty simple and easy. The school bus comes for our kids at 6:50am, which is incredibly early. Many mornings, we just have time to wolf down a quick bowl of cereal. Sometimes my husbands gets downstairs early enough to make some eggs and sausage or bacon! But, man…. my kids eat it soooo slow!
But on the weekends, we like to have a little more fun with our breakfasts. My husband and my daughter usually go downstairs ahead of everyone else on Saturday mornings to make some pancakes. But, sometimes, it is fun to treat everyone to a special breakfast recipe. So, I’m always looking for a cool casserole, cinnamon roll or waffle recipe to brighten up everyone’s morning. So, when I discovered this Rhodes Rolls Monkey Bread Recipe, I was pretty pumped!
Quick And Easy Monkey Bread Recipe
Monkey Bread is also sometimes called pull-apart cinnamon rolls or cinnamon roll bites. It consists of biscuit dough baked in a pan (usually a bundt pan) with butter, sugar and cinnamon. The result is a great breakfast treat that is easy to share. Just pull off what you want and enjoy! These make great recipes to bring to office parties, pitch-ins or potlucks.
Often, you will see this recipe made with refrigerated biscuits but you can also use frozen bread dough as well. For instance, using Rhodes frozen rolls works great, you can just break off the ones that you need and thaw them out overnight!
Using a regular sized Bundt pan will take about 20-24 rolls. Be sure not to overstuff the pan or you will have a gooey and sticky mess with the bread rises! There are two methods for thawing out the frozen dough, you can put the whole bag in the fridge overnight and then separate them once they have thawed a bit. But the better way is probably to separate the balls as frozen dough in the package and place them on a cookie sheet (not touching) in the refrigerator overnight. Then they will be ready to go in the morning. If you can time it so they are still just a little bit frozen, then it makes them easier to cut too!
Easy Monkey Bread (with Bread Dough)
If you are using a dark pan, I’d suggest reducing the oven temp to 325. For shiny or glass pans, keep it at 350.
Jazz up this recipe by sprinkling some nuts in the bottom of the pan before you put the bread in. This way, the finished product will be lined with the nuts. We don’t do this because our son is allergic to tree nuts. You could also drizzle some icing over the top of your Monkey Bread to give it a little extra sweetness! My daughter LOVES icing!
I hope you enjoy this delicious sweet breakfast recipe. Now that I know that Monkey Bread made with frozen dough is possible, I’ll be sure to have some Rhodes dinner rolls stashed in my freezer at all times! Let me know what you think of the recipe in the comments!

Follow the directions on the frozen bread dough packaging as to the specifics of how to thaw it in the refrigerator. I placed mine in a glass dish that had been sprayed with Pam, and then covered it loosely with plastic wrap. It thawed beautifully overnight.

This is a fun recipe to play around with. Try placing chopped pecans in the bottom of the bundt pan before adding the dough balls for a caramel nut topping. Let monkey bread cool slightly and then drizzle over a little vanilla icing. Want extra caramel? Drizzle your favorite caramel sauce over the top immediately after turning it out of the pan.
Yes that should be fine. You will just want to use the same amount of dough that this recipe calls for which is 16 ounces or 1 pound. If you want a fully homemade monkey bread recipe then I have a recipe for it here on my site.

Pour the melted butter into a dish with a low rim (like a pie pan.) Dip the dough balls into the butter, coating well, and then roll them into the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture.
Place evenly in rows in a greased bundt pan. I like to spray the bundt pan with a nonstick spray that has flour in it.
Cover the pan with a towel and place in a warm place to rise for 1-2 hours. It will rise almost to the top of the pan when ready.

Bake at 350F degrees for 20-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown. (Note that dark coated baking pans will cook faster.)
Cool in the pan on a cooling rack for 5 minutes (only) and then turn onto a serving platter. Serve warm with a sprinkle of chopped pecans (optional).

Monkey bread was probably my very favorite childhood dessert. Let's be honest, it's pretty high up on my favorites as an adult too. I've made canned biscuit monkey bread and crockpot monkey bread, now I'm whipping up this easy monkey bread recipe with frozen bread dough.
I almost forgot that I've made a pecan pie monkey bread too! I adore this unique cranberry orange pull-apart monkey bread too.
What I like most about using frozen bread dough is that I don't have to pop those cans of biscuits. I am literally scared to death to pop them. I suck it
