A rich, gooey cinnamon monkey bread made with soft dough chunks coated in cinnamon sugar, basked in a caramel glaze, and baked to perfection for a delectable treat.

  • Total Time: 1 hour 55 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup warm milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup caramel sauce

Instructions

  1. Combine warm milk, yeast, and a teaspoon of sugar; let sit until frothy, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add flour, remaining sugar, salt, and melted butter to the yeast mixture; knead until smooth and elastic.
  3. Cover and let rise in a warm area until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  4. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
  5. Punch down dough and cut into small pieces. Coat each piece in cinnamon sugar mixture.
  6. Arrange coated dough pieces in a greased bundt pan, layering with caramel sauce between layers.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Remove from oven and cool slightly. Invert onto a serving plate and drizzle with additional caramel sauce if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure milk is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.
  • For extra flavor, add chopped nuts or raisins to the dough.
  • Serve warm for the best gooey texture.
