This apple and cinnamon monkey bread is just perfect for Sunday brunch, breakfast in bed or just about any occasion. It is best while it’s still warm because you will feel the gooey apples with cinnamon sounded by flaky dough bites and all of that topped with a drizzle of vanilla and cinnamon glaze.
You can also make this recipe in mini muffin cups or mini bundt cake pans, but I found that this recipe is best served in a huge Bundt pan so when you will bring this dessert to the table everyone can dig in.
Instead of apples, you can use pears or any other kind of fruit you think works well with cinnamon and brown sugar.
Remember to taste it while it’s still warm drizzled with a beautiful vanilla and cinnamon glaze on top.
This recipe represents the perfect holiday spirit and smells because of the apples and cinnamon.
All you need to do is to call a few friends, make this apple and cinnamon monkey bread recipe and enjoy.
