In honor of National Cinnamon Roll Day, I thought I’d share with you my delicious Vanilla Cinnamon Monkey Bread. It’s not really a roll, but the warm dough bits surrounded in cinnamon sugar and doused in vanilla butter will take you to the land of yummy-ness! And there’s nothing better than waking up in the morning to the sweet smell of vanilla and sugar! Great with a warm cup of coffee or a cold glass of milk! Get ready to make this quick and easy delight over the weekend!
Vanilla Cinnamon Monkey Bread
(inspired from Pillsbury Recipes)
½ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cans (16.3 oz each) Pillsbury® Grands!® Homestyle refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Heat oven to 350° degrees. Prepare a 12-cup fluted tube pan with cooking spray and set aside.
In large storage plastic food bag, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon.
Separate dough into 16 biscuits; cut each into quarters. Shake in bag to coat., then remove and arrange in pan.
In small bowl, mix brown sugar, butter and vanilla; pour over biscuit pieces.
Bake 35-40 minutes or until golden brown and no longer doughy in center. Cool in pan 10 minutes. Turn upside down onto serving plate; pull apart to serve. Serve warm.
Now get ready share some love with your family as you pull apart and devour this Vanilla Cinnamon Monkey Bread!
Wow, that looks lovely and your recipe sounds fantastic! I’ve been meaning to making monkey bread, so thanks for the inspirational push 🙂
Thanks! This was actually the first time I made it! It was fabulous! I hope you give it a try! 🙂
National Cinnamon Roll Day? Honestly, how could I have missed this? I guess I have a lot of baking to catch up on… Luckily, your fantastic monkey bread looks much easier to put together, and possibly even tastier.
Aw, Thank you so much! Now get baking some of this delicious stuff!!! LOL 🙂
Oooooh vanilla cinnamon sounds like a fabulous flavour combo for monkey bread! I love that this uses pilsbury dough. Sometimes a girl needs her monkey bread ASAP instead of waiting for dough to rise. Love this!
Oh my, it’s so gooooood!!! Super quick and easy to whip up for breakfast! YUMMY!! 🙂
