Hi Bold Bakers! I love pizza, no matter what shape or form it comes in. Because of that, I made it my mission to come up with as many different ways to consume my favorite treat as possible. Normally, Monkey Bread is sweet — but Bigger Bolder Baking does not do normal! Already have an account? We think outside the box here. That’s how in a moment of crazy baking I came up with this recipe for a Big & Bold Pizza Monkey Bread! Monkey Bread is also known as pull apart, or tear and share, bread. The reason being is that everyone can pull off chunks and help themselves. It is a great dish to make for parties or get togethers because it’s made to be shared easily. And what I like most is you can make it the day before and bake it off when you need it.
How To Begin Making Pizza Monkey Bread
My dough is a soft bread roll dough, similar to dinner rolls. It is a lovely, simple recipe that can be made on a machine or by hand. Now, I just want to warn you, I have seen people using store bought biscuits and pizza dough to make Monkey Bread. That’s ok, we will convert them later. All those options are equally delicious but I would be doing you and myself an injustice if I didn’t show you a homemade dough.
Getting The Perfect Bake
This bread is like an upside down bread, so when baking it you want to get a lovely, golden brown bread on top to ensure that the dough on the bottom of the tin is getting nicely baked as well. You often see a Monkey Bread with a lighter colored bottom which is totally normal, you just want to make sure it is fully baked all the way through. Leave it in for the full time and resist the urge open the oven while baking.
