Brioche Monkey Bread is a fun, interactive dessert that brings warmth and joy to any gathering!

1

In a small saucepan, heat the milk and butter over low heat until warm but not boiling. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

2

In a large bowl, combine the warm milk and butter mixture with a tablespoon of sugar and the dry yeast. Stir gently and let it sit for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.

3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, remaining sugar, salt, and cinnamon.

4

Once the yeast mixture is frothy, add the eggs and mix well.

5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until it forms a soft dough.

6

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.

7

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.

8

Once risen, punch down the dough and break it into small pieces.

9

Roll each piece into a ball and dip each ball in a mixture of brown sugar and cinnamon.

10

Stack the balls in a greased bundt pan, layering them evenly.

11

Cover the pan and let it rise again for about 30 minutes.

12

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Bake the monkey bread for about 30-40 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before inverting onto a plate.
