I have made this recipe several times now and I get rave reviews each time. I love this recipe and wouldn’t change a thing.

This is my first attempt to make monkey bread and even eating it! My 3 1/2 year old niece enjoyed helping shake the dough. She loved it! I would definitely say though that 3 cans was too much for my pan. I also didn’t mesh the butter and the brown sugar on the stove top, just in the oven, so it wasn’t all melted together as described. Next time I think I will do that. (and use less biscuits- maybe 2 cans) But other than that, yummy, yummy, yummy!

It’s a good recipe and when it works, it tastes great. However, I’ve made it twice and faced the same problem each time: the pieces in the middle and near the bottom of the pan never cook and are still REALLY doughy. I’ve followed the recipe each time and adjusted oven temperatures and bake time and it hasn’t been successful. It finally took taking it out of the pan and letting it cook on a baking sheet for a good 15 minutes for it to actually cook all the way through.

Oh WOW WOW WOW!!! I made this for my mom, gradma and her friend and they ate the whole thing Crazy Good.
This should come with a warning– make sure you have at least eight people or you will eat more than you should.
Made it for a pot luck down at the cottage too and it was a hit with everyone.
Thanks Pastor Ryan!

Wow. This made me look like a cooking goddess in the eyes of my boyfriend. The only problem: I used 3 cans of Pillsbury buttermilk biscuits and, after 30 minutes in the oven, the pieces ended up rising an inch higher than the bundt pan and the sauce was dripping down the side of the pan into the oven. I think I’ll use 2 or 2.5 cans next time. Maybe Pastor Ryan was using the smaller cans of biscuits?? Regardless, I will be making this again! Tastes just like Cinnabon!

made it for a potluck brunch this morning and everyone oo’ed and ahh’ed. that didn’t last too long thought because soon everyone’s mouth was full of sticky, delicious monkey bread! i cut back on the butter a bit just to see if i could and it turned out just fine though the top was a bit crunchier than the sticky gooey bottom. i used three of the small, skinny biscuit dough cans that were sold in a four pack (not the grands!) and it filled my bundt pan perfectly with no overflow during baking. so easy!

This is the first time I’ve made this and I went by the recipe using 3 cans of biscuits…..Well it is stil in the oven at 50 mins, doesn’t look like it is going to cook through. By looking at the picture, the butter did not come close to covering the dough, so I’m thinking that the biscuits were just toooo big.
I’ll make this again and only use 2 cans of biscuits….see how that goes. I’ve been reading ALOT of recipes for Monkey Bread ( using biscuits )and so far they are all the same, but fun to experiment with.

My kids love this (and me too)! It was super easy to put together and bake–my 9 year old son did most of it by himself! It tastes fantastic!

Hi,
When you look at the picture of ingredients he has on the table ………these look to be just the regular ( small )
size biscuit cans, you can even use the generic cans of biscuits. I agree that this is NOT a big tall bundt bread, so if you are filling the pan up more ……that’s the baking problem. This would be very cute in mini bundt pans….
( aka……angle food cake mini pans )
Hope this helps alittle……..

For those having trouble getting it to cook all the way, try only filling the bundt pan half way. Looking at the picture above, that doesn’t look to be tall enough to fill a bundt pan.
