Good things happen when there is Monkey Bread involved. It’s just a fact and there’s no way around it. It might not be the best for any kind of diet, but it’s pretty good for just about everything else in the world. Having some issues at work – monkey bread is the answer. Can’t figure out what to buy your sweetie for the holidays – monkey bread is the answer. Need a little sweet treat – monkey bread is the answer. See what I mean? It works wonders.
This Cinnamon Apple Monkey Bread rocks my socks. It’s almost like getting a serving of fruit too, since you know there are apples in it and all. I whipped some of these up at work the other day, and again for some friends when they came over for dinner, and it’s just kinda awesome. Not to mention crazy easy and tasty. You just need to make it. And then take one of the little mini Cinnamon Apple Monkey Bread bundts and relax on the couch. It’s the right thing to do, trust me 🙂

I just sat at Macrina bakery in Seattle yesterday staring at the monkey bread, and thinking- I have to get a great monkey bread recipe! This arrived in the nick of time! Thanks Gaby!

I love monkey bread and I’m having a why-didn’t-I-think-of-that moment right now. Genius, Gaby!
Oooo, let’s see how many we can eat! Game? GAME.
So simple! And it would be great with a handful of walnuts or pecans tossed in there too!
I love that you added apples to these. They look amazing and so incredibly simple!
Can you believe I have never has monkey bread before? This looks so easy and tasty, I think even my husband could do it – for this weekend!
Mmm heavenly 🙂
These look positively fabulous, G!
LOVE monkey bread! and i’m digging your cinnamon apple version!
Those little monkey breads are so cute! And cinnamon and apple are the perfect things to add to monkey bread to give it that extra special something. 🙂 Delicious!
i love the mini size!
So adorable!
This is a reason to make a trip to the grocery store. YUM.
I love these mini ones. What a great idea! These would be perfect to serve on Christmas morning.
I SO wish I had one (okay 5) of these with my coffee right now.
I tried these and really liked them but I also added 2 t. of dry butterscotch pudding mix in with cinnamon sugar mix. It just heightened the caramel cinnamon level.
Can you make these ahead (say make the night before) and bake the next day?
What about using peaches?
Thanks!
