Strawberry Monkey Bread

Sharing this easy, delicious recipe that I made back when the kids and I went strawberry picking in May(2022)! Haha I’m forever late but I guess late is better than never especially when it comes to this monkey bread. 🤤

You’ll need limited ingredients which is the best thing about this recipe. I’m all for easy but yummy. Find your ingredient list at the end of this blog.

For the macerated strawberries

1 pound strawberries roughly chopped add in a teaspoon vanilla extract and 1/4 cup granulated sugar. Mix and set aside for 2 hrs.

For the dough

You’ll need 2 cans of Pillsbury home style biscuits. Cut them into wedges. In a bowl, mix a cup of sugar with cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. Melt 1 stick of unsalted butter in another bowl. Coat each biscuit wedge in butter then roll in the sugar mixture.

Spray the Bundt pan with baking spray. Add one layer of dough(biscuit) to the pan. Blot strawberries and add them to the pan above the dough. Add the rest of the coated biscuits to cover the strawberries.

Preheat the oven to 350 and cook the monkey bread for 40-45 minutes.

Prepare the icing

Mix softened cream cheese and powered sugar. Add in the strawberry purée and vanilla abstract and mix until smooth. Once monkey bread has cooled off and is transferred to a plate drizzle the icing over and serve! Enjoy
