Apple Pecan Monkey Bread

Fall is finally here! YAY! Fall is 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.

Apple Pecan Monkey Bread Made with Biscuits

I had made some individual monkey breads earlier today, but I wasn’t impressed with the presentation. They were delicious, but I decided that I’d make this one. Actually, this monkey bread made with biscuits is super delish, and as my daughter, Halie, said, “It’s like Fall in my mouth.”

Apple Pecan Recipes

I have quite a few recipes planned in the upcoming months. I’m super excited to start making apple and pumpkin goodies. This apple pecan monkey bread is not vegan. You will now start to see that more of my recipes 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.
