Apple Pecan Monkey Bread

Apple Pecan Monkey Bread Recipe

Fall is finally here! YAY! My favorite time of the year for baking. I have been waiting for Fall all year and am so excited that it is finally starting to cool down a bit where we live. Today when I made this Apple Pecan Monkey Bread, my daughter came into the kitchen and said, “It smells like Christmas.” I always have cinnamon scented pine cones in a basket during the holidays, and it did smell like Christmas. But it’s Fall… and I’m soooooo happy.

How To Make Apple Pecan Monkey Bread

When you make this apple pecan monkey bread, lay the pecans on the bottom of the bundt pan. When you add your first layer of sugar-coated biscuit cubes, make sure to gently spoon them onto the pecans, that way the pecans will stay in the design you placed them in. After you add your apple mixture, and then the second layer of biscuits, sprinkle some of the remaining sugar mixture over the top before you add the melted butter. Stick it in the oven and in about 40 minutes, you will have a delicious fall dessert that everyone will love.

Apple Pecan Recipes

I have quite a few recipes planned in the upcoming months, and I’m super excited to start making apple and pumpkin goodies. This apple pecan monkey bread is not vegan, and you will start to see more of my recipes that are not vegan.  Some of my family members are now vegetarians, so I will be making food for my blog that they want as well.
