Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 cans (16.3 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

  • 1/4 cup molasses

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan generously with butter or nonstick spray.

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.

  • Cut each biscuit into quarters and toss them in the spiced sugar mixture until fully coated. Set aside.

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the brown sugar and molasses, stirring constantly until smooth and combined. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

  • Layer the coated biscuit pieces in the prepared bundt pan. Pour the warm spiced butter mixture evenly over the dough pieces.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the dough is cooked through.

  • Allow the monkey bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.

  • Serve warm and pull apart the pieces to enjoy the gooey, spiced goodness.

Notes

  • Use fresh spices for the best flavor.

  • Ensure each biscuit piece is fully coated in the spiced sugar.

  • Grease the bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking.

  • Optional toppings: chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or a dusting of powdered sugar.

  • Best served warm for maximum gooeyness.
