I've never bought into that whole "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" jargon. My typical morning begins with me refusing to get out of bed for as long as possible (cue thoughts of do I really need a shower? and how many days has it been since I washed my hair?), and by the time I'm ready to leave home, I'm lucky if I can grab the bagel Husband toasted for me.
One of my favorite things about holiday gatherings is the breakfasts. Casseroles and fruit salads and extra-crispy bacon grazed over until lunch time.
When breakfast is good, it's so. stinkin. good.
And is there any better breakfast than monkey bread? That warm, caramely, doughy round is not only delicious, it's also quick and easy to make, and rather impressive-looking.
So if you're still entertaining this week, make this!
This monkey bread is just like your traditional gooey, caramel-dripping monkey bread BUT made with cinnamon roll dough. Throw some apple cubes in the mix to bake in that caramel-cinnamon goodness. And top it all off with the cinnamon roll icing.
Want to size this down to enjoy with a smaller crowd? Use one roll of cinnamon rolls and roughly third all the other ingredients. Follow recipe directions using adjusted ingredients, and check to see if it's ready after 25 minutes of baking.
