This week the Arkansas Test Kitchen is sharing a nostalgic, fun recipe your kids are going to love. Yep, it got a little bananas up in the Arkansas Test Kitchen over Thanksgiving...
One of Doug's fondest winter memories is waking up in the morning and smelling monkey bread in the oven. So over Thanksgiving break while his niece and nephew were in town; all three children set to work making a family favorite.
Monkey Bread:
4 cans of biscuit dough, each piece of dough cut into quarters
1/2 cup sugar
Cinnamon to taste
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 stick melted butter
1. Mix sugar, cinnamon and brown sugar together.
2. Coat each quarter of biscuit dough in sugar mixture.
3. Pour 1/2 of the melted butter in the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish.
4. Place sugar coated biscuits into baking dish.
5. Pour remainder of the melted butter over the top of the mixture.
6. Bake in the oven until golden brown (about 10-15 minutes) at 400 degrees
Icing for the top:
2 cups of confectioners sugar with a little water. Mix together thoroughly until a thick paste is created. Drizzle icing over the top of cooked monkey bread.
This is a great recipe for the kids to help with. The kids were able to use a butter knife to cut the biscuits into quarters, and then they had a blast rolling the biscuit dough into the sugar mixture and placing into the baking dish.
As the weather continues to get colder, this is a great weekend breakfast recipe that's guaranteed to warm you up.
Stay Cool,
