Apple Fritter Monkey Bread
Serves: 6-8 Prep time: 20 min Cook Time: 30 mins Total Time: 50 mins
Ingredients
3 large of your favorite apples peeled, cored and chopped into 1/4 inch pieces
2 tbsp white sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp butter
1-2 tbsp water if needed
2 tubes Pillsbury country biscuits (Cut biscuits into 1/4 pieces)
1 cup butter melted
1.5 cup demerara brown sugar packed
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl toss the apples with 2 tbsp white sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. In a sauce pan melt 1 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add apples, and sauté for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until apples are tender and all the liquid is gone. Cool slightly. (If apples seem dry add water). Next cut biscuits into 1/4’s. Place melted butter in one bowl, and mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon in another bowl. Put a layer of caramelized apples in the bottom of bundt pan. Dip each piece of dough into the melted butter, shake off any excess. Then coat the dough with the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture. Alternate layering dough pieces and apple chunks in the bundt pan until all dough pieces are coated. Pour any remaining butter over the top. Put in oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and bread is cooked completely where dough pieces touch together. Remove from oven and immediately invert the bundt pan onto a large plate. Be careful not to spill any of the hot and sticky butter-sugar mixture. Allow bread to cool slightly, about 5 minutes. Drizzle with royal icing if desired. Pull apart and enjoy! We bet you can’t eat just one piece!!!
