Iced Monkey Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Lightly coat a 10-inch Bundt pan and a medium bowl with shortening; set aside. Put the warm water and a pinch of sugar in a small bowl; sprinkle yeast over top. Stir; let the yeast soften and dissolve, about 5 minutes.
• Place shortening, milk, sugar, salt, and egg in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook.
• Add yeast mixture to shortening mixture, and beat to combine. Slowly add flour. Knead on medium-low, 1 minute. Transfer dough to the prepared bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and let stand in a warm place, 20 minutes.
• Make coating: Place melted butter in a bowl. In a second bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and nuts; sprinkle 2 tablespoons nut mixture into prepared Bundt pan.
• Cut dough into 1/2-inch pieces. Roll into balls. Coat in butter, then roll in nut mixture, and place in prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap, and let stand in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in pan for 15 minutes. Invert onto a serving plate, and let cool 20 minutes more.
• Make icing: In a small bowl, combine milk and confectioners' sugar. Stir until smooth. Drizzle over bread.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degree F. Grease a 10-inch Bundt or tube pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Cut the biscuits into quarters and roll into balls. Combine 2/3 cup of the sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cinnamon, the cardamom and the zest from 1 orange in a shallow dish. Roll the biscuit balls in the mixture. Place the coated balls in the pan, sprinkling some of the mixture over the balls occasionally while filling the pan.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the remaining 1/3 cup sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon and the vanilla. Warm, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Add the remaining orange zest and pour over the top of the biscuit balls.
• Bake until the top of the bread is golden and caramelized, about 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let sit at least 5 minutes. Unmold the monkey bread onto a cake plate. Slice or pull apart to serve.

Steps:

• Lightly spray a 6-cup bundt pan with cooking spray and set aside.
• Tear off a piece of aluminum foil about 2 feet long and arrange the foil in front of you with one of the longer sides closest to you. Fold it toward you (the long way) in half once, then fold once again to create a foil sling for the bundt pan. Set aside.
• Turn a 6-quart Instant Pot® to saute (see Cook's Note) and allow to heat up for 5 minutes. Add the butter and cook, stirring frequently, until browned bits start to form at the bottom of the pot and the butter smells nutty, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn off the heat, carefully remove the pot and pour the brown butter into a medium bowl. Return the pot and immediately pour in 1 cup water. Place the rack into the pot with the handles facing up.
• Combine the turbinado sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the mixture in the bottom of the prepared bundt pan. In 3 separate batches, roll a third of the biscuit pieces in the brown butter, then in the cinnamon sugar, so that each piece is completely coated. Arrange the pieces in the bundt pan. Wrap the top of the pan tightly with foil.
• Put the pan in the center of the foil sling, then pick up both sides of the sling, bringing them up the sides of the pan. Carefully lower the pan onto the rack. Fold down the foil sling as needed so that it fits in the pot. Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 25 minutes.
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 10 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid. Carefully use the foil sling to lift out the pan and set it over a cooling rack. Remove the aluminum foil and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the confectioners' sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, then whisk until smooth. After the monkey bread has cooled slightly, carefully invert it onto a plate or platter, then drizzle with the glaze. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 8 muffin cups with cooking spray.
• In a bowl, stir together 1 tablespoon of cinnamon and the white sugar until evenly blended. Remove the biscuits from the packages, and cut into quarters. Drop a few biscuit pieces at a time into the sugar mixture, and coat thoroughly. Distribute the coated biscuit pieces among the prepared muffin tins (4 to 5 pieces per cup).
• Place butter, brown sugar, and the remaining 1 tablespoon cinnamon in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl, and microwave a few seconds until the butter has melted. Stir to blend, and drizzle about 2 tablespoons of the butter mixture over each cup.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the tops of the muffins are crispy and brown, about 20 minutes. Allow to cool for about 10 minutes before removing from pan.

Steps:

• Start with the dough. Put the milk and butter into a medium pan and heat gently until the butter melts and the milk is at a simmer. Cool for a few mins, then beat in the eggs with a fork. Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl with 1½ tsp fine salt, then add the liquid and stir to a sticky dough. Leave for 5 mins, then tip onto a floured worktop and knead for 5-10 mins until smooth and springy. Use a little oil to grease a large bowl, add the dough, turn it in the oil to coat, then cover the bowl with clingfilm. Leave in a warm place for 1 hr or until doubled in size. Knead in a tabletop mixer with a dough hook if you prefer.
• To assemble, grease a 25cm bundt pan with butter. Melt the rest of the butter in a pan. In a medium bowl mix the spices and sugar plus a pinch of salt. Spoon 2 tbsp melted butter, 3 tbsp spiced sugar and 4 tbsp pecans into the bottom of the tin.
• Pull the dough into about 65 small pieces and roll into balls. Taking 4 or 5 at a time, dunk the dough balls into the melted butter, let the excess drain off, then tip them into the spiced sugar. Roll to coat, then put haphazardly into the tin. Repeat until there's a full layer of dough in the tin. Scatter with the rest of the chopped nuts, then carry on filling the tin with the coated dough balls. Tip any leftover sugar and butter over the dough. Can be frozen now for up to 1 month. Defrost in the fridge then let prove.
• Cover the pan with oiled clingfilm then leave to rise in a warm place for 1 hr, or until risen and the dough no longer springs back when you poke it.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Bake the monkey bread for 35 mins, or until well risen and golden. Let the pan cool for 5 mins, then give it a sharp rap on the counter. Leave in the tin until just warm.
• Whisk all of the ingredients together to make the glaze. It will thicken as the melted butter cools. Turn the monkey bread onto a serving plate, then drizzle with the glaze. Let it set, if you can bear the wait.
