Not a very cute name for this one, but omg this was SO good! I’ve been wanting to make Monkey Bread for a while now, and I figured it would be perfect for the GT. Monkey Bread is basically just some dough balls stuck together and baked into a loaf, so that it pulls apart really easy. I think the balls are usually covered in cinnamon and sugar, so you have a gooey cinnamon roll type bread.
For this recipe I used this Big Daddy Biscuit recipe subbing soy milk. They are really good and light and fluffy. I also had some nice peaches, so i diced up one of those and mixed it into the dough. Then I made the dough into balls and rolled each ball in a brown sugar/cinnamon mixture. I put 3 balls in each well of the GT Xpress and let it cook for about 10 minutes. The result was this super yummy, sweet, but not overly sweet breakfast. I really loved this and it was a perfect way to get a baked treat for breakfast on a hot day without turning on the oven.

Comment by bunniee June 20, 2008 @ 12:05 amI’ve never heard of monkey bread! I figured it was going to be some sort of banana/choclate/pb kinda thing, but yours looks delicious!
Comment by Ambie June 25, 2008 @ 6:39 amI thought bananas would be involved in some way too. I am glad they are not.
