Description
Delicious blueberry monkey bread made with biscuit dough and fresh blueberries, topped with a sweet glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- For the Dough
- 2 cans (16 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough (such as buttermilk biscuits)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- For the Blueberry Filling
- 1 cup fresh blueberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- For the Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan or a 10-inch round cake pan.
- In a small bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Gently toss to coat the blueberries and set aside.
- Open the biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters.
- In a large bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Dip each biscuit piece in melted butter, then toss in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
- In the prepared bundt pan, layer half of the coated biscuit pieces, followed by half of the blueberry mixture.
- Repeat with the remaining biscuit pieces and blueberries, ensuring even distribution.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more milk or powdered sugar as needed.
- Drizzle the glaze over the warm monkey bread.
- Serve warm, allowing guests to pull apart the pieces and enjoy.
Notes
- Use fresh blueberries for best flavor.
- Make sure to coat the biscuit pieces well for even sweetness.
