APPLE CINNAMON MONKEY BREAD
If you love apple and cinnamon, you need to make this delicious breakfast treat!
If you love apple, you must try these delicious Apple Fritters! So good and wonderful with coffee.
❤️WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
We love anything made with biscuits, even if they are canned. This recipe is great and one your family will love. Apples and cinnamon are always a great combination, then we add in pecans and top it with a powdered sugar glaze. It’s wonderful warm, right out of the oven! You can use any apples with this recipe.
SWAPS
If you are not a fan of nuts, you can simply leave them out. Any apples will work in this recipe. We make this recipe with 2 (7.5) ounce cans of biscuits, but sometimes we can’t find those. So anything that is close to 15 ounces will work.
This is the first post I’ve ever written…..
This was absolutely delicious! I made it for Christmas morning and my family loved it. I couldn’t believe how easy it was to prepare. I didn’t need the 3 apples. I used 2 and had some left over. This will be a recipe I’ll make for many family gatherings. to come! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
CAN I MAKE THIS IN ADVANCE?
We recently remade this and it was wonderful warmed up in the microwave the next day. I do think it’s best served immediately. My family still loved it. We kept in an air tight container over night.
DO I HAVE TO USE THE GLAZE?
No you don’t have to add the glaze. We find that it’s just as good without it and you can even make it up and serve it on the side if you prefer.

How about Bridgeford dough instead of canned biscuits. It’s the best dough ever. I bet it would make this recipe even better
I bet it would be great. The biscuits were to make it super easy. Good luck and let us know how it turns out.
