Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 cans (16.3 oz each) refrigerated cinnamon rolls
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup chopped pecans (optional)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Icing from cinnamon roll packages
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan with non-stick spray or butter.
- Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters.
- In a bowl, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon. Toss the cinnamon roll pieces in the sugar mixture to coat evenly.
- Layer half of the coated cinnamon roll pieces in the bundt pan, then sprinkle with half of the chopped pecans (if using). Repeat with the remaining dough pieces and pecans.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, whisk together melted butter, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Pour evenly over the dough in the bundt pan.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
- Drizzle the reserved icing over the warm monkey bread and serve immediately!
Notes
- For an extra touch, serve with vanilla ice cream.
