MINI GARLIC MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a 12-cup standard muffin tin or coat with nonstick spray. Cut each of the 8 biscuits into eighths, making 64 pieces. In a large bowl, whisk together butter, Parmesan, garlic, oregano, basil, parsley and salt, reserving 2 tablespoons; set aside. Stir in biscuit pieces and gently toss to combine. Drop 5-6 pieces into each muffin cup. Using your fingertips, gently press the last piece in the center. Place into oven and bake until golden brown, about 8-10 minutes. Serve immediately, brushed with remaining butter mixture.

MONKEY BREAD FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Lightly grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with vegetable oil.
• Combine warm water, yeast, and 1 teaspoon sugar in a large bowl. Let stand until bubbly and foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in 1 cup flour, warm milk, egg, 3 tablespoons sugar, butter, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix well before adding remaining 2 1/2 cups flour. Mix and knead until dough comes together in a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
• Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and punch down gently to deflate. Divide dough into small or medium balls.
• Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Dip each dough ball in melted butter, remove with a fork, and roll in sugar mixture until well coated. Arrange in the prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let rise until almost doubled, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Invert onto a large plate; cool for 10 minutes before serving.
