Blueberry Monkey Bread


Ingredients

2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1-1/4 cups blueberries
2/3 cup brown sugar
1-1/4 sticks (10 tablespoons) margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon cinnamon
4 pkgs. (10 oz. each) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

Directions

  1. Thoroughly grease a 10 x 4-inch tube pan. Mix 2/3 cup sugar and I tablespoon cinnamon. Cut biscuits in quarters. Roll each piece in sugar mixture. Arrange about one-fourth of the biscuit pieces and one-fourth of the blueberries in an even layer in pan. Place blueberries between biscuit pieces, creating a mosaic effect. Repeat three more times with remaining biscuits and blueberries, covering blueberries of one layer with biscuits in next layer to avoid a column of blueberries. In saucepan combine sugar, margarine, vanilla, cinnamon and the additional I cup blueberries. Bring to a boil, reduce heat. Cook, stirring frequently until sugar is dissolved and margarine melted. Pour over biscuits in pan. Bake in a preheated 350 degree F oven for 65 minutes or until done. Lift or turn out onto cake plate. Yield 8 to 10 servings.

Cinnamon Monkey Bread


Ingredients

The Dough
1/2 cup water 1/4 cup melted butter, cooled
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs, lightly beaten
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 teaspoons (1 package) dry yeast
The Filling
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup melted butter

    Directions

    1. To make the dough: Measure the water, melted butter, eggs, and milk into the bread pan. Add the flour, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the yeast. Select the dough cycle, or if your machine does not have that selection, select the basic bread cycle and stop the machine after the dough has risen once. After the dough has risen, punch it down and let it rest for about 10 minutes on a floured board.
    2. Butter a tube or bundt cake pan. To prepare the filling: Combine in a small bowl the brown sugar, the cinnamon, and the 1/3 cup melted butter. Pinch off enough dough to make a golf-sized ball. Roll the ball in the brown-sugar mixture and place in the bottom of the tube pan. Continue with all of the dough, lining the bottom of the pan first, and then arranging the rest of the balls in loose layers. Pour any leftover brown-sugar mixture over the top. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise to the top of the pan, about 40 minutes.

    Pillsbury Biscuits Monkey Bread


    Ingredients

    1 can Pillsbury Biscuits (or any other brand, if you have a coupon) equal parts of Sugar and Cinnamon

Directions

  1. Cut the biscuits in quarters and let the kids roll them into balls. Roll the biscuits in the sugar/cinnamon combination. Line them on a cookie sheet in the shape of an "S" (or whatever floats your boat), so that they are touching. Bake for 10-12 minutes at 300o until done. Then let the kids pull them apart. They taste like cinnamon rolls and make a quick treat for the kids. (Don't worry Grandma, they don't come close to yours!
