Ingredients for Monkey Bread
Biscuits – Choose any variety of canned biscuits – I most often use Pillsbury, but any brand will do. You can also make this with homemade biscuit dough as well.
Cinnamon Sugar – Cinnamon sugar flavors and sweetens the bite-size pieces of dough.
Nuts – Pecans are my first choice but you can leave them out to make it nut-free or replace them with walnuts, macadamia nuts, or slivered almonds.
Caramel Mixture – A simple mixture of brown sugar and butter creates a caramel-type sauce making it sticky delicious!
