This monkey bread is easy to make in a Bundt pan with biscuit dough, cinnamon, butter, and brown sugar for a scrumptious treat. My 7-year-old daughter, Leah, loves pulling apart her monkey bread. Enjoy!
This sweet, sticky, gooey pull-apart bread, whimsically called "monkey bread," is a popular sharable treat for breakfasts, desserts, and snacks.
Tasting like pull-apart sticky buns, monkey bread is easy to make with everyday pantry ingredients, and can be customized with add-ins like dried fruits, nuts, and spices to suit your tastes. And with thousands of ratings and reviews, this is one of our best monkey bread recipes of all time.
What Is Monkey Bread?
Monkey bread is a pull-apart bread made with bite-size pieces of dough coated with sugar and spice and baked with a buttery brown sugar sauce in a tube or Bundt pan. To serve monkey bread, invert it onto a large plate and let everyone pull it apart into individual pieces with their fingers or forks.
Why Is It Called Monkey Bread?
That's a good question without a definitive answer. Some say it's called monkey bread because you pick the bread apart with your fingers as though you're eating like a monkey, and some say it's because the baked monkey bread resembles the zigzag pattern of a monkey puzzle tree (Chilean pine).

Monkey Bread Ingredients
These are the ingredients you'll need for this monkey bread recipe:
- Biscuit dough: This recipe uses cut-up pieces of canned biscuit dough as a convenient shortcut ingredient.
- Sugar and cinnamon: Used to coat biscuit dough pieces both for flavor and to make them easier to pull apart after baking. You can substitute other ground spices such as cardamom or a pumpkin spice blend.
- Walnuts (optional): You could substitute pecans or leave out the nuts altogether.
- Raisins (optional): You could substitute dried cranberries or other small bits of dried fruit.
- Margarine and brown sugar: Combined and briefly boiled to create the sweet caramel-like sauce that holds the monkey bread together. Many reviewers use butter instead of margarine. Be sure to pack down the brown sugar firmly into the measuring cup to get the correct amount. Some home cooks recommend adding about ¼ cup cream or milk to help keep the sauce soft even after it cools.
How to Make Monkey Bread
You'll find the full, step-by-step recipe below — but here's a brief overview of what you can expect when you make this top-rated monkey bread:
- Cut the biscuits into quarters and coat in cinnamon-sugar.
- Arrange the pieces in the pan. Add the raisins and nuts among the pieces if you're using them.
- Boil the brown sugar and margarine, then pour over the biscuits.
- Bake the monkey bread in the preheated oven.

How to Serve Monkey Bread
Monkey bread is meant to be pulled apart and eaten with fingers or forks. There's no need to cut and slice. It's best when served warm and the sauce is still soft and sticky, but it's good eaten cold as well.
How to Store Monkey Bread
Monkey bread can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for three or four days. You can wrap and freeze baked monkey bread for up to three months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
Cookdap Community Tips and Praise
“Fun to make & delicious to eat! I cut the recipe into ? and only used 1 can of biscuits in an 8″ round cake pan. Cooked for about 20 minutes. My 2½-year-old enjoyed helping me roll the balls. Also, previous reviewer suggested using a pizza cutter to cut the biscuits —great shortcut,” says Cookdap home cook BBURG_HOKIES.
Reviewer Stephanie C offers this tip: “Scrumptious! I used frozen yeast roll dough to get a more homemade yeast bread flavor and the results were outstanding! You can make it the night before this way: Thaw 18 golf ball-size raw yeast rolls over about an hour. Once thawed, cut each in half. Follow the recipe for coating and layering. After pouring the brown sugar mixture over dough, place in cold oven overnight to rise. Follow baking instructions in the morning. Absolutely perfect! The entire extended family loved it!”
“The only tips I could offer would be to make sure you don’t press down on the dough balls once you get them in the pan, or else the sauce won’t make it all the way through the loaf and get it all gooey and delicious on the inside. Also, I’d make about 50 percent more sauce than the recipe calls for, because people seem to go for the parts that have the most sauce,” says reviewer JenniJ3333.
Ingredients
- 1 cup white sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 3 (12 ounce) packages refrigerated biscuit dough
- ½ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)
- ½ cup raisins (Optional)
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- ½ cup butter or margarine
Directions
Step 1
Gather all ingredients.
Step 2
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9- or 10-inch tube or Bundt pan.
Step 3
Mix white sugar and cinnamon in a plastic bag. Cut biscuits into quarters. Shake 6 to 8 biscuit pieces in the sugar-cinnamon mix.
Step 4
Arrange pieces in the bottom of the prepared pan. Continue until all biscuits are coated and placed in the pan. If using walnuts and raisins, arrange in and among the biscuit pieces as you go along.
Step 5
Melt butter and brown sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Boil for 1 minute; pour over biscuits.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Let bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a plate and let everyone pull it apart.

I took this to a meeting at work and it was a big hit! It is so easy to make and the end result is very yummy. I’ve gotten requests for the recipe. This is a definite keeper!!

Very easy, very delicious. This is great to take when it’s your turn to bring something. Thanks for the recipe. I agree. This is a keeper.

when making monkey bread at my house…wrap caramels or choc kisses with the biscuit dough…my family loves it this way!!
-
Very good, but the butter/brown sugar mixture leaked out the bottom of the pan. (I used a pan that is for angel food cake…2 pieces). Excellent besides that.
-
I loved this quick recipe! I didn’t even have walnuts or raisins and it was still yummy!

Best Monkey bread recipe I’ve ever used! I always wanted to throw nuts and raisins in, and this was great! My kids liked it much better than my old stand-by. Now when kids sleep over, they beg for this at breakfast, thanks LuAnn!
-
This was better than the recipe my mom used (and I loved) when I was a kid! I incurred a problem though when I filled the fluted pan and the loaf pan too full; the caramel spilled over onto the bottom of the oven. The loaf pan should only be about half full, 2/3 for the Bundt pan. The dough seemed to double in size! WONDERFUL breakfast treat for my family and I!!!

I used 2 cans of biscuits instead of 3 and it was good. There was not enough of the icing on all of the bread if you used 3 cans.
-
This is a real nice treat for the sweet tooth! Me and my children had fun making it.

This is really great. My kids love helping to make it as much as they love eating it.

My husband begged me to make this bread for him and when I did, he loved it! Thanks for the great recipe. We have taken it to work several times and received rave reviews. I always carry home an empty pan.
-
Quick and easy. I added 1 teaspoon of vanilla to the caramel sauce while cooking. YUMMY!!!!
-
This recipe was great! It’s easy to make…but I did not need that many biscuits. I used two small cans (7.5oz)and one 10 oz can and sliced them in halves instead of quarters. I also used a bundt pan. Fill only 2/3 of the pan. It rises quite a bit.
-
I loved this treat! I couldn’t stop eating it, it was so delicious!!
-
It is really good and my kids love it.

My grandmother used to make this for me when I was a kid. I thought it would be really complicated to make, but quickly found out it was very easy. Loved it as a kid and still love it today.
-
The entire family agreeded on this one! YUMMY! The aroma of it cooking is wonderful. This one is a keeper! Thanks!!!

Yum! Quick and easy, I will definitely make this recipe again. I threw in the leftover sugar & cinnamon in with the butter & brown sugar sauce… worked out great!

I made this today. First of all, I don’t have a tube pan so I put them in an 8″ cake pan. I didn’t have enough room to use all 3 biscuit tubes, only 1 1/2. I left out the walnuts and raisens as I am not fond of them. I overcooked it a little but otherwise it turned out ok. I will make it again after fine tuning a bit.
My 3 y/o daughter enjoyed helping me coat the peices with the cinnamin/sugar mixture.

To make this recipe even quicker, use a pizza cutter to cut up the biscuits. Add a tsp of lecithin, (full recipe) with the butter, to keep the butter from separating from the caramel. I reduced the recipe to one tube of biscuits and baked it in a 8 in round pan. They were done in 12 min. A quick addition to a any breakfast.

This was great! Instead of tube biscuits, I used a package of frozen bread dough, and I decorated the finished dessert with maraschino cherries! Goes great with a cup of coffee!
-
Excellent! I don?t use walnuts or raisins, just the bread. GREAT recipe for kids, a little messy, but so easy, and they love to eat it. This is a favorite, and an awesome alternative to bread in the fall.

I had 1 container of the pillsbury cinnamon bun dough in my fridge and figured I would use that instead of the regular biscuit dough. I was worried that the rolled bun shapes would fall apart when I cut them into quarters but they didn’t at all. I think the secret is to do it when the dough is really cold and then once they’re coated in the sugar/cinnamon mixture it keeps each piece together. I cut the rest of the recipe into 1/3 except I used a little less brown sugar in the glaze because I figured there was enough in the dough already. I also used a bundt pan, and omitted the raisins because we don’t like them. It took 25 minutes to cook. My boyfriend LOVED this. I made it for breakfast and the two of us finished it off. He said I definitely had to give this one 5 stars. Great recipe.

This was fantastic. Followed one suggestion by flipping it over onto cake plate before it cooled and the sugar mixture just seeped all the way through – perfect. This is delicious, easy and kids can help make it! Thanks for sharing!

This is a winner!!! I have made it for several years and am ALWAYS asked for the recipe. You couldn’t ask for an easier, more delicious breakfast treat. My husband has to bring a treat for a weekly morning meeting about every 6 weeks and everyone loves when it is his turn because they know I will be making this. I am going to have to start making two.

Absolutely Scrumptious! Cooked this for Christmas breakfast using 1 can of biscuits with the coated pieces arranged in a 9″ pie dish drizzled with the brown sugar sauce & it came out perfectly. The family loved it, especially the kids…a definite keeper! Thanx.
-
I used the Hungry Jack cinanmon and sugar biscuits. Because everyone wanted a “sweet roll”, I still (lightly) rolled them in 1/2 the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Since my bundt pan was a 12-cup, and the Hungry Jack biscuits come in 10 ounce quantity, I used 4 cans. It was the hit of Christmas morning!

This Monkey Bread was out of control! Excellent. I brought it to a Christmas party and everyone loved it. I did not have a bundt pan so I used two cake pans and it came out very good. Although, I had a lot of biscuit dough leftover (because of the lack of a bundt pan) so I doubled up the dough on one pan and it actually came out better because it was more moist inside.

The taste was great, but pouring the sauce over it made all the sauce sink to the bottom. After it cooled the top of the bread was too chewy to eat. My father used to make it and he would dip each piece into the butter and cinnamon/sugar. I think it might come out better that way.

I made this last night when I came home from work. I wanted to make something my sweet-toothed, but picky-eater husband might like. Well it was a HIT! He LOVED it, and on the plus side, it was fun to make. I am sure I will be making this quite a bit. Thank you LuAnn!
-
Amazing! I used the Pillsbury cinnamon rolls. At the end I even spread some of the icing that came with the rolls on the bread for an even sweeter taste, not that it needs it!

This tastes delicious and is so easy to make. I spray my Bundt pan with PAM, but some of it wants to stick in places. Is it the raisens?
-
This was pretty good! The only problem I had was I used grands biscuits and it took forever to bake!
It stays soft for days when wrapped in plastic wrap and set on the kitchen counter. -

I was trying to find a recipe like my grandmother used to make. This sounded similiar. It was easy to make and my kids enjoyed cutting up the biscuits and shaking in the bag of sugar and cinnamon. We really didn’t like the finished bread. It was too sticky and too sweet. It was more like caramel rolls not cinnamon rolls.

Oh yes, this one’s a keeper. I used a bundt pan and filled it 2/3rds as others suggested; it worked out perfectly. I also found another easy way to cut the biscuits into quarters – kitchen shears.

This was very easy to do. I was always afraid to try monkeybread because all the recipes I saw required making the dough from scratch. I never thought about just buying refrigerated dough from the grocery store. The monkeybread came out excellent.

I didn’t know my son had recently made these in his home economics class at school. When he walked into the kitchen he said, “These are AWESOME!” I used a bundt pan with 3 7.5 oz. cans of biscuts and didn’t use the nuts or raisins. I filled the bundt pan about 2/3 full and it came out perfect with a very nice presentation.

This bread is amazing! I made it for Mother’s Day, and everyone in my family loved it. My mom tells everyone about it. I didn’t change the amount of any ingredients, but I did cut the rolls into quarters which made them bite size. I rolled them in butter, and then the brown sugar mixture. It took a little longer, but it’s worth it.

This is good stuff – but I simplified it a bit. I don’t like to dirty too many pans! I reduced the sugar to about 2/3 cup, and coated the biscuits in sugar and cinnamon before I snipped them into fourths with my kitchen shears, letting the pieces fall back into the sugar mixture to coat them a little more. I put them into my bundt pan and poured melted butter over the top. Worked like a charm! And the reduced sugar worked out better for my hypoglycemic sweet-toothed friend.

the second time I made the bread i used a bundt pan. in my first attempt to make the monkey bread i set my oven on fire and had to call the fire dept. I didn’t realize that the butter and sugar mixture leaked out of the tube pan (it’s a two piece)and most of it was on the bottom tray of the oven. the oven was hot so i figured it was a good time to clean the oven. i have a gas self-cleaner. i was out on my patio enjoying reading when i smelled something burning. when i went into the kitchen the flames were a foot high in the oven and the smoke was pouring out of it. i couldn’t open the oven door because it was in the lock mode. we called the fire dept but by the time they came the fire burned itself out. i was very lucky i didn’t ruin my oven and there wasn’t more damage done. so please be careful when you make this in a two piece tube pan. if it does leak clean the bottom tray before self cleaning or better yet place a piece of foil on the bottom. i learned that the hard way.

This is so easy & tasty! My husband wants me to make this all the time. I would probably use less of the butter/sugar combo next time. it was a little too much for us. Great recipe & would definetly make again.

I’m a home daycare provider and the kids and I made this yesterday. I was really impressed. After reading other revue I was a little nervous
to use tube pan, worked great in bundt pan that I sprayed really well. The kids loved it. -
I absolutely love this recipe. I find it works best in a bundt pan – less chance of spilling over. I also like to mix the sugar in a bowl instead of a bag – it’s less mess and easier for my daughter to help. Try pouring the brown sugar and butter mixture throughout as you layer that way all pieces get coated evenly. This one is a definite keeper. Thanks LuAnn!!

I’ve made this several times and it is one of my family’s favorites. I usually don’t worry about the raisins and I use a bundt pan too. I have tried making it up the night before to save time in the morning, but it doesn’t turn out as well that way.

Absolutely Delicious!!! Our family wolfed the whole thing down in one sitting. Very easy to make, my kids helped to make this and had a lot of fun doing so. Thanks for a fantastic recipe.

This is the best breakfast ever! I used flaky butter biscuits by Pillsbury and that really enhanced the flavor. My mother-in-law loved it so much, she asked for the recipe and has been making it every weekend for everyone. This one is a keeper!

I just made this for a little surprise for my husband (today we have been married 4 months) It smells absolutely divine!

Good recipe – the only thing I did differently was omitted the raisins (didn’t have any in the house at the time). My only complaint was that it stuck to the bottom of my tube pan, even though I had greased it.

This recipe is fantastic! Quick, easy, and delicious, it brought me back to my childhood when I would look forward to eating Monkey Bread at my aunt’s house. The only change I made was the fact that I used pecans instead of walnuts. The second time I made this, I substituted all of the butter for sweetened applesauce. The result was fantastic, with much less guilt. Yummy!

I made this last night as a *Treat* for DH & DD. They loved it, I used pizza cutter to cut the biscuts, and cooked it in a bunt pan. This is a fast and easy recipe!!!!!

Fabulous recipe! Super easy and quick! My 2-year old daughter LOVED helping roll the dough in the sugar. I didnt have a bundt pan the first time I made this, so I used a Pyrex bowl, and it worked just fine. The second time I used a bundt pan and it was just as good, only a little prettier!

This is a great recipe. I have never had problems with it sticking to the pan because I use no stick spray instead of grease or butter (it works perfectly)Also instead of blending the nuts and raisins with the dough, put them on the bottom of the lpan before you put the dough in. I use scissors to cut the dough. I also substituted pecans in the place of walnuts. It is fabulous!

This recipe is so easy and fast, that my 12 year old daughter can do it with no problem, and it is fun to do together. The best part is that it is so delicious and can be personalized with so many combinations of nuts or dried fruits.

This was not as sweet as I had anticipated. I used Pam in my bundt pan and only 3 pieces stuck in the bottom. Next time I would make more of the brown sugar and butter syrup as my family did not feel there was enough. I did find that eating it hot was best since it became hard when it cooled.

I served this one on christmas morning. While the kids were opening their presents, I had this in the oven. It added a wonderful smell of the holidays!

Yummy! I made this bread on Christmas morning having never made it before. I found it to be very easy to make. It tasted wonderful and will become a traditional Christmas breakfast item in our home. We were still picking at it throughout the day because it was so delicious! Thanks for the recipe.

This was a lot of fun to make. My son enjoyed shaking the biscuits in the Ziploc bag with the sugar and cinnamon and placing them in the bundt pan. Clean up is a breeze. Just throw everything back into the Ziploc bag!

If you want a real scrumptious treat, flatten out the pieces of biscuit and wrap them around a cube of cream cheese, before you toss them in the cinnamon and sugar. WOW!
This recipe is incredible and so easy to make! I used my Bundt pan and 2 cans of Grands buttermilk biscuits. I cut the biscuits into 6ths instead of 4ths and it cooked for the same time as regular biscuits. I also added some vanilla extract to the butter/sugar topping and made the sauce in the microwave instead of on the stovetop.
I found shaking the cinnamon/sugar with the biscuit pieces to be really easy and even a little fun, as it brought out a little of the kid in me. 🙂
Absolutely delicious!

Very good recipe, made it twice already. Great for family breakfast with coffee.

Great recipe! Fun for kids to help.

This recipe tasted great. My kids actually made the
whole thing by themselves. I would definately make
this one again!! -
This recipe was scrumptious. I only used 2 cans of 10 count butter flavored biscuits. I flattened them out very gently by pulling rather than pressing down, wrapped each one up with a small cube of cream cheese and a half ts of cinn sugar in the middle. After tossing each ball in the cinn sugar mix, I sprinkled the remaining sugar on top of each of the balls after placing in pan. Made it a lot more caramely and gooey. Yummm…

Good Stuff. My husband ate the whole thing in one day. Couldn’t keep his hands off of it

An all-time favorite. My oldest son brought this recipe home from his cooking class in jr high years ago. Never tried the nuts or raisins, but they make a great addition!

Yummy! I used applesauce for half of the butter to make it less fattening. It took about 45 minutes to bake. I will make it again.

I, too, filled the biscuit pieces with cream cheese (I used a lite cream cheese spread), plus instead of raisins or nuts (yuck) I sprinkled chocolate and peanut butter chips throughout the pan. The result was delicious. I was afraid the cream cheese would make the flavor bland, but it didn’t. In fact, it added a wonderful texture (like a filled donut, only less sweet). I’ll probably never make monkey bread without cream cheese again!
