How To Serve Easy Monkey Bread

Serve the monkey bread while it’s warm and gooey. Spoon some into individual bowls. It’s even good with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. We love making this recipe for weekend breakfast, brunch and on Holidays!

Can I Save Leftovers?

While the monkey bread is best enjoyed after it’s baked, you can save leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat as needed. To reheat, place monkey bread on a heat proof plate, lightly covered and microwave for 50-60 seconds, or until hot.
