Easy Crescent Roll Monkey Bread Recipe
Crescent roll monkey bread is made with only 5 simple ingredients! Pre-made refrigerated dough, cinnamon sugar, and an incredible brown sugar butter caramel.
Crescent Rolls: Crescent rolls are of course the base of this easy monkey bread recipe! You’ll need 3 cans. I use and recommend Pillsbury crescent rolls, but you can use any kind you find in the grocery store.
Salted Butter: Butter is used multiple times throughout this recipe! You’ll need 1/2 cup for the caramel sauce and 2 tbsp of melted butter to top the finished bread.

There are not many substitutions you can make to this easy breakfast recipe as there are not too many ingredients to begin with! However, there are a few tasty additions you could make.
Crescent Rolls: Although this whole recipe revolves around crescent rolls you could use a different refrigerated dough if you would like. Perhaps a biscuit dough!
Nuts: Adding some nuts to this classic monkey bread would be such a fabulous idea! They would add some yummy flavor and a perfect texture. Try layering in some pecans or almonds with the dough balls.

Spices: I love the classic cinnamon flavor in this recipe, but you could add some extra spices to take the flavor up a notch. Or to celebrate certain holidays! Like pumpkin pie spice during the fall or gingerbread vibes for Christmas morning.
This sticky bread is incredibly quick and easy to make! It comes together in much less time and with much less effort than a regular monkey bread.
All you have to do is prepare the crescent dough, coat in sugar & cinnamon spice, and add a delectable caramel sauce on top. Pop in the oven until golden brown and you’ll have the best sweet treat ready in no time!

Step 2: Remove the crescent roll dough from the can, but do not unroll to the large rectangle. Cut the dough log into 9 even slices. Then cut each slice in half.
Step 3: Combine the white sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Coat the dough pieces thoroughly in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
Step 4: Heavily grease a bundt pan with cooking spray. Place the coated dough pieces in the pan. Dispersing them evenly. Top with any remaining cinnamon sugar mixture.

Step 5: Next add the light brown sugar and 1/2 cup of butter to a pan on the stove over medium heat. Melt and then bring to a slight simmer for 1-2 minutes. Reduce the heat and let thicken a bit.
Step 6: Pour the brown sugar butter mixture over the dough pieces in the bundt pan. Spreading as evenly as possible. Bake for 30 minutes.
When coating the dough in cinnamon sugar, use a plastic bag. Toss the dough pieces and cinnamon sugar mixture into the bag and shake until everything is coated evenly. This is quite the time saver over coating each piece individually!

Once the monkey bread is removed from the oven allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before removing from the pan. This will allow everything to set properly.
Flip quickly and carefully! – When you are ready to remove the bread from the pan, place a cooling rack or serving plate face down on top of the bundt pan. Flip the bundt pan and serving surface together. Then place the plate or rack down. Slowly and carefully lift to remove the pan.
But you could really bake this in any pan you would like or have on hand. The baking times might just be slightly different!
