CINNAMON MONKEY BREAD
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 20-25 min
MONKEY BREAD is a classic breakfast treat that the kids (and adults!) absolutely go nuts over! Sweet, sticky biscuits coated in cinnamon and sugar and baked in a simple caramel sauce. We make this for a Sunday breakfast usually, but it’s a fun treat to sneak in anytime of the week.
INGREDIENTS
· 1 3/4 cup gluten free Oat flour
· 3/4 cup Almond flour
· 1/2 cup Truvia
· 1 tsp Baking powder
· 1/2 tsp Baking soda
· 1/2 tsp Salt
· 1/2 cup unsweetened Applesauce
· 1 Egg or flax egg
Topping:
· 1/8 cup Sweetener of choice
· 1 tbsp Cinnamon
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray 9 regular size muffin tins with cooking spray.
Mix dry ingredients for monkey bread in a medium mixing bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the bowl, and stir until combined, and dough forms. If the dough is sticky, place it in the fridge to chill for about 15 minutes, and/or add a few more tbsp oat flour until you are able to handle it and form small balls with your hands. Form the dough into balls small enough to fit 3 balls in each muffin tin. Continue until 9 muffin tins have been filled with 3 balls each.
Combine the topping in a small mixing bowl. Pour the topping evenly over each monkey bread, saving about 1/4 cup for topping when they are done baking.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until monkey bread is just cooked through. Top with remaining topping and let cool for at least 5-10 minutes before removing from the muffin tins, using a knife to loosen them around the edges and pop them out.
