    Monkey Bread is sweet, soft and delicious pull apart bread recipe prepared using flour, cinnamon, sugar, butter and milk in bundt pan.

    I have made this bread from scratch. Its was fun preparing this beautiful bread and the end result was big hit 🙂 It is really hard to resist. This can be served for breakfast or even as a treat.

    Every time I visit grocery store to buy veggies I see this bread with different flavors. I wanted to try it at home instead of buying it from store. I checked online for different recipe and was inspired from the video posted by sortedfood.
