Easy Monkey Bread Muffins
I had one of those recipes that I tried years ago and it was OK but seem too sweet. I am happy to say that after playing around with the recipe, I now have a delicious monkey bread muffins that is ready in under 30 minutes.
I used store-bought biscuit dough which made these monkey bread muffins super easy and fast to prepare. It was baked with brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter.
I decided to use canned biscuits (12 ounce can) but you could easily make your own dough if preferred. The combo of these ingredients paired with the soft flaky biscuit has amazing flavor your family and friends will love!
How to Make Simple Monkey Bread Muffins
Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 12 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. In small bowl, stir together granulated sugar and cinnamon. Separate dough and cut each into 6 pieces. Put sugar and cinnamon in a bag. Put one cut biscuit in and shake to cover. Only do one at a time. Put the biscuit with sugar mixture in a muffin cup.
In 1-quart saucepan, heat butter, brown sugar and water to boiling, stirring constantly. Cook and stir about 2 minutes or until brown sugar is completely dissolved. Reserve 2 to 3 tablespoons caramel mixture for drizzling after baking. Spoon remaining caramel mixture over biscuit pieces in muffin cups. Bake 8 to 11 minutes or just until biscuit pieces are golden brown. Remove from muffin cups; drizzle with reserved caramel mixture. Serve warm.
