Step-by-Step Instructions for Monkey Bread
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your Bundt or tube pan.
  2. Cut each biscuit into quarters and place in a zip-top bag with granulated sugar and cinnamon. Seal and shake until coated.
  3. Spread the coated biscuit pieces unevenly into the greased pan, allowing them to stack on each other.
  4. Melt 1 cup of butter with 1 cup of brown sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until smooth. Pour over biscuit pieces.
  5. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean and the top is dark brown.
  6. Let cool in the pan for 15 to 30 minutes before inverting onto a plate to serve warm.
