Don't Let Breakfast Get Boring!
During the week, we usually keep our breakfasts pretty simple and easy. The school bus comes for our kids at 6:50am, which is incredibly early. Many mornings, we just have time to wolf down a quick bowl of cereal. Sometimes my husbands gets downstairs early enough to make some eggs and sausage or bacon! But, man…. my kids eat it soooo slow!
But on the weekends, we like to have a little more fun with our breakfasts. My husband and my daughter usually go downstairs ahead of everyone else on Saturday mornings to make some pancakes. But, sometimes, it is fun to treat everyone to a special breakfast recipe. So, I'm always looking for a cool casserole, cinnamon roll or waffle recipe to brighten up everyone's morning. So, when I discovered this Rhodes Rolls Monkey Bread Recipe, I was pretty pumped!
What Is Monkey Bread?
Monkey Bread is also sometimes called pull-apart cinnamon rolls or cinnamon roll bites. It consists of biscuit dough baked in a pan (usually a bundt pan) with butter, sugar and cinnamon. The result is a great breakfast treat that is easy to share. Just pull off what you want and enjoy! These make great recipes to bring to office parties, pitch-ins or potlucks.
Often, you will see this recipe made with refrigerated biscuits but you can also use frozen bread dough as well. For instance, using Rhodes frozen rolls works great, you can just break off the ones that you need and thaw them out overnight!

Tips and Tricks For Rhodes Rolls Monkey Bread
Using a regular sized Bundt pan will take about 20-24 rolls. Be sure not to overstuff the pan or you will have a gooey and sticky mess with the bread rises! There are two methods for thawing out the frozen dough, you can put the whole bag in the fridge overnight and then separate them once they have thawed a bit. But the better way is probably to separate the balls as frozen dough in the package and place them on a cookie sheet (not touching) in the refrigerator overnight. Then they will be ready to go in the morning. If you can time it so they are still just a little bit frozen, then it makes them easier to cut too!
If you are using a dark pan, I'd suggest reducing the oven temp to 325. For shiny or glass pans, keep it at 350.
Jazz up this recipe by sprinkling some nuts in the bottom of the pan before you put the bread in. This way, the finished product will be lined with the nuts. We don't do this because our son is allergic to tree nuts. You could also drizzle some icing over the top of your Monkey Bread to give it a little extra sweetness! My daughter LOVES icing!
I hope you enjoy this delicious sweet breakfast recipe. Now that I know that Monkey Bread made with frozen dough is possible, I'll be sure to have some Rhodes dinner rolls stashed in my freezer at all times! Let me know what you think of the recipe in the comments!
