Equipment

  • bundt pan

Ingredients
  

For the Base

  • 2 c. apples peeled and diced
  • ¼ c. brown sugar packed
  • 3 tsp. ground cinnamon divided
  • ¾ c. granulated sugar
  • 32 oz. canned biscuits 2 packages

For the Sauce

  • ½ c. butter melted
  • 1 c. brown sugar packed
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F.
  • Grease a 12-cup bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray; set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the apples, ¼ cup brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Open the packages of biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into 4 pieces. Toss the biscuit pieces in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
  • Scoop ⅓ of the apples into the bottom of the bundt pan. Top with ⅓ of the biscuit pieces. Repeat the layers until all the apples and biscuits are added to the pan.
  • In a small bowl, combine the ingredients for the sauce, then pour the mixture over the biscuits in the bundt pan.
  • Bake the monkey bread for 50-60 minutes. Check on the bread at 45 minutes and if the top is getting too dark, cover with foil for the remaining baking time.
  • Allow the monkey bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a plate to serve.
  • Serve the monkey bread warm.

Notes

  1. Any firm apples good for baking will work well for this recipe.
  2. I used flaky layer biscuits, but other varieties will also work.
  3. The leftover monkey bread can be kept at room temperature or refrigerated for up to three days. It can also be frozen for up to three months, but it’s really best to make and serve this bread fresh.
