Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Water
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 4 cups Bread flour
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar (for coating)
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
Instructions
Add milk, water, unsalted butter, eggs, granulated sugar, salt, bread flour, and instant yeast to the bread machine pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer.
Set the bread machine to the dough setting and let it complete the cycle (approximately 1.5-2 hours).
While the dough is rising, prepare the coating by mixing the 0.5 cup granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
Once the dough cycle is complete, turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently punch it down.
Divide the dough into approximately 40-45 small pieces (about 1-inch balls). Roll each piece into a smooth ball.
Dip each dough ball into the melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat.
Grease a bundt pan and layer the coated dough balls in the pan, slightly overlapping.
In a small saucepan, melt the brown sugar and heavy cream together over medium heat, stirring constantly, until smooth and combined.
Pour the brown sugar mixture evenly over the dough balls in the bundt pan.
Cover the bundt pan with plastic wrap and let the dough rise for another 30-45 minutes, or until nearly doubled in size.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the monkey pull aparts in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Let the monkey bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Serve warm and enjoy!
