Sticky Bun Monkey Bread, a step up from plain Monkey Bread, Just look at all that caramel, yum!
A delectable, heavenly, scrumptious new favorite.
I was just trying to change things up a bit and use the Pioneer Woman’s recipe.
Her way was no messy fingers.
But I was tired, only on my first cup of coffee, and I’d hurt my elbow roller skating the night before. And I buy the bulk butter from Sam’s Club.
Best kitchen mistake I’ve ever made!
just look at all that melted butter!
Wipe the drool off your chin.
This Monkey Bread looks like any other when you pull it out of the oven.
Let it rest for 10 minutes before turning out onto a serving plate.

- In a large Ziploc bag, combine sugar and cinnamon. Shake to combine. Set to the side.
- Place butter and brown sugar in a medium saucepan and set on low for butter to melt.
- Crack open cans of biscuits and start slicing into quarters. Place biscuit slices into the bag with your cinnamon sugar. Zip Closed and shake to coat completely.
- Start layering coated biscuit slices and chopped pecans into a greased bundt pan. Set to the side.
- Check on your butter, it should be completely melted. Stir to combine. Pour butter syrup over top of the biscuit slices.
- Place in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes. Till the biscuits are completely cooked.
- Remove from oven and let sit for 15 minutes. Carefully turn monkey bread out onto plate. Caution, Sauce is HOT and will burn you.
Notes
you can also melt the butter in a microwave safe bowl and then stir in the brown sugar until sugar dissolves. An addition 60 seconds in the microwave may be needed to completely dissolve sugar.
Everyone loves the combination of bread, lots of caramel stickiness and pecans!

June 30, 2013 at 4:20 pmYum!!!! I have been wanting to make monkey bread for a while now, this convinced me to get a move on:)
Kay says
October 27, 2013 at 9:45 amI think this sounds like a great recipe. The kinder way to post your comment might be “for an even yummier monkey bread try bread dough in place of the canned biscuits” There was no need to be rude. .I have found that even though I normally don’t buy canned biscuits that recipes like this show me there is more useful ways to use them as shortcuts and they turn out great and save time in the process.
Shovelhead Dan says
January 4, 2014 at 3:36 amRude? How on Earth did you get rude from her description?
Regardless, I’ve made monkey bread before but not as delicious as this looks. Thanks for the recipe!

January 25, 2014 at 8:05 pmOk, I have never made Monkey Bread, but it is something I’ve always wanted to try. And your recipe is the best one I’ve ever seen. So, after I coat the biscuits, when I put them in the bundt pan, is there a special way of doing this, or do you just layer then in? Then you just add the nuts, and the syrup? Does that make the nuts come out on the bottom? Or can you add them with the biscuits to the make them through out the bread? I’ve never made Monkey Bread, because I’m kinda scared off making. And my husband and I have tried and tested a lot of recipes. This seems like a simple recipe, so it’s not complicated? Sorry, I want to try this really bad and I just don’t want to mess it up. Thanks!!

April 8, 2014 at 8:52 amHi..
I am from South Africa….. could you please tell me alternative for can biscuits, as we do not have biscuits in cans over here.. lol
regards
Jacinta says
June 21, 2014 at 8:23 amWe don’t have canned biscuits in Australia either so looking for alternative , looks yum
Joan Hayes says
June 21, 2014 at 8:12 pmDo you have frozen bread dough? That would work as well.
Linda Hales says
June 21, 2014 at 10:59 pmYour Sticky Bun Monkey Bread looks delicious and I would love to Make it but as I am from Australia, I am wondering what refrigerated biscuits are or what I could use in place of them.
Joan Hayes says
June 23, 2014 at 8:04 amIf you have frozen bread dough available in your area, that would also work. Otherwise you would need to make a bread dough from scratch.
Lisa says
June 23, 2014 at 3:57 pmThank you! I’m in South Africa and was baffled too!
Jocelyn says
June 24, 2014 at 7:15 amHi! I found your website through facebook and I must say that I am hooked. Absolute fan right here. You are truly an inspiration. I’ve already saved numerous recipes to my “absolutely must try” list of recipes.
Now, about making sticky bun monkey bread. Is it an absolute must to bake then in a bundt pan? I have this tiny-ish microvave oven (a surprise gift from my work party) that can only fit a round or square pan. A bundt pan is definitely too tall. What altercations must I make? Such as baking time and what not.
Thank you so much!
Joan Hayes says
June 24, 2014 at 7:52 pmI would half the recipe and then make it in the smaller pan, Also, you will probably only need to bake it for about 25-30 minutes in the smaller pan. Enjoy!
Jessica says
January 24, 2015 at 5:34 pmIs it supposed to be 3 cans of regular-sized biscuits or “Grands” biscuits? Thank you!
Joan Hayes says
January 25, 2015 at 8:54 amIt’s 3 cans of the regular biscuits. I usually buy the 4 pack.
Jessica says
January 26, 2015 at 8:42 pmThank you very much!
Suzanne says
September 14, 2015 at 4:46 pmI was wondering if there is a way to make these without using store-bought biscuits? Is there a homemade biscuit recipe that could be used in place of the store-bought biscuits? I do not use any processed foods with artificial ingredients or preservatives.
