Monkey bread is one of my favorite breakfasts/desserts. This Pumpkin Spice Monkey Bread is sweet, it’s spicy, it’s perfect to make and share with the family… Basically it’s everything a good Fall recipe should be!
Pumpkin Spice Monkey Bread
The great thing about monkey bread is that’s a great recipe to get the little ones into cooking. It’s a really forgiving yeasted recipe so even if a step is not made “just like the instructions” the result will be just as delicious.
The other thing I love about this is that you can slice it and freeze it! So when you have some monkey bread cravings you can take out a slice out of the freezer and let it thaw in room temperature, or even better put it in the toaster and have some pumpkin spice monkey bread toasts!
For a different look, try using a decorative bundt pan instead of the typical fluted monkey bread pan.
