Mmmm Monkey Bread is my holiday favorite!
I use the Bridgeford frozen bread loafs. Cut it in half lengthwise, then cut it into small chunks. Dip each chunk into melted butter and layer in a bundt pan.
Let rise for a few hours and bake at 350 till golden brown.
There are so many variations you can do with this recipe. I make a mix of grated parmesan cheese and different spices (basil, garlic, oregano) and roll the bread pieces in that after the butter. Or for a delish breakfast, roll the pieces in a cinnamon/sugar mixture.

Oh oh oh!! I'm posting one on my blog tomorrow morning!!! The recipe I found actually calls it Cinnamon Pull-Apart Bread, but it's just like the "Monkey Bread" I grew up with. Anyway, I'm taking it for Bible Study in the morning, so be sure to check out my blog in the a.m.!!!

If there is, then you didn't properly use oven mitts, Jenn.
