Caramel Apple Monkey Bread
Description
Monkey bread gets an upgrade when frozen bread dough is paired with warm, cinnamon-sugar coated apples.
Ingredients
•
cooking spray
•
1/2 cup white sugar
•
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•
1 large apple - peeled, cored, and chopped into 20 chunks
•
1 (1 pound) loaf frozen bread dough, thawed
•
1/2 stick butter, melted
•
1/2 cup brown sugar
Directions
1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with cooking spray.
2
Mix white sugar and cinnamon together in a medium bowl. Add apple chunks and stir to coat thoroughly. Set aside.
3
Divide dough into 20 pieces. Wrap 1 piece of dough around a coated apple chunk and pinch to seal shut. Dip in melted butter, then roll in brown sugar. Arrange balls of dough in even circles in the prepared pan.
4
Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
5
Carefully invert pan onto a large plate so caramel mixture runs over each piece. Cool briefly before serving.
