Description

Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread a warm, gooey pull-apart bread that transforms store-bought cinnamon rolls into something extraordinary.


Ingredients

  • 2 tubes (17.5 oz each) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and generously butter a 10-cup bundt pan.
  • Whisk together granulated sugar and cinnamon in a large bowl.
  • Cut each cinnamon roll into 6 pieces and toss with cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Layer half the coated pieces in prepared bundt pan.
  • Mix brown sugar, melted butter, heavy cream, and salt. Pour half over first layer.
  • Add remaining cinnamon roll pieces and top with remaining butter mixture.
  • Bake 45-50 minutes until golden brown.
  • Cool 8 minutes, then flip onto serving plate.
  • Drizzle with warmed icing packets.

Notes

Brown the butter slightly for extra flavor, and don’t let the monkey bread cool longer than 8 minutes in the pan to prevent sticking.
