I found this recipe over at the Pioneer Woman and it just might be the best thing I've ever eaten in my life. Oh it is so good!! I made some a couple of days ago, and posted some pictures on my blog.

Monkey Bread

1/2 cup brown sugar
2 sticks of butter (1 cup)
2-3 teaspoons cinnamon

3 cans buttermilk biscuits (non-flakey)

1 cup sugar

Open all 3 cans of biscuits and cut biscuits into quarters. Combine the regular sugar with the cinnamon in a gallon ziploc bag and shake to mix. Drop all of the biscuit pieces into the bag and shake to coat. Take the biscuit pieces and spread them into a greased bundt pan. Melt the 2 sticks of butter over med-high heat and add the brown sugar.  Mix and then pour over the biscuit pieces in the bundt pan.  Bake 350 degrees, 30-40 minutes. Cool for about 15 minutes and then turn over on a plate. It should slide right out.

This sounds exactly like the version I had years ago that was delicious.  There were pecans in it as well.  Of course, there are upteem ways to do this, all good!

Here's another variation on the basic recipe! 

Every search I made for this turned up something using store bought biscuits.  I don't see why you can't use home made buscuits though.  

We had a member looking for a Bluebarry Monkey Bread recipe and this is what I found, I got it from http://www.cooksrecipes.com, which has lots of good things.

Blueberry Monkey Bread

2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
4 (10-ounce) packages refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries , divided use
3/4 cup (1 1/4 sticks) butter or margarine
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  1. Preheat oven to 350*F (175*C). Thoroughly grease a 10 x 4-inch tube pan.
  2. Mix 2/3 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. Cut biscuits in quarters. Roll each piece in sugar mixture.
  4. Arrange about one-fourth of the sugared-biscuit pieces and 1/4 cup of the blueberries in an even layer in pan. Repeat three more times.
  5. In saucepan melt butter; stir in brown sugar, the remaining 1/4 cup blueberries and cinnamon. Cook, stirring frequently until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour hot syrup over biscuit/blueberry mixture in pan.
  6. Bake for 65 minutes or until done. Turn out onto serving plate.

Makes 8 to 10 servings.

BravoShimmy…that is the recipe!  Although, when I prepared this bread, I used my own biscuits.  Thanks for finding it for me!

Trust me, this recipe is Heavenly!  My baby sister gave birth when she was only seventeen; I learned to bake this so she would have good "flow"….yes, she breast fed my nephew, who is a very healthy, smart two year old; I've started teaching him some spanish!  But back to the recipe, it is delightful!Fork
