Mmm, monkey bread! The very best of tear-and-share bread. We’re all familiar with the sweet version, but with a few changes, monkey bread can become a cheesy and herby appetizer that you won’t want to stop eating. Cheesy Monkey Bread is still a snap to make with only a few ingredients, and once you’re done, you’ll have a buttery melt-in-your-mouth delight. You might just be tempted to keep the whole thing to yourself.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) salted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 3 (7.5 ounce) cans buttermilk biscuits, not the flaky kind, cold
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 8 ounces dill Havarti cheese, shredded
Directions
Step 1 –Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 2 –Brush a bundt pan or tube pan with the melted butter generously but careful not to use too much.
Step 3 –Open all the cans of biscuits and cut each biscuit into quarter pieces.
Step 4 –Meanwhile, toss the parsley and Havarti cheese together in a large bowl.
Step 5 –Place half of the biscuit pieces into the pan, covering most of the bottom.
Step 6 –Drizzle half of the remaining melted butter on top of the biscuit layer.
Step 7 –Then, sprinkle half of the cheese parsley mixture onto the biscuit layer.
Step 8 –Layer the remaining biscuit pieces over the top and drizzle with the remaining melted butter.
Step 9 –Sprinkle the remaining cheese mixture on top.
Step 10 –Bake until puffed and deep golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.
Step 11 –Allow the monkey bread to cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan on a rack, then invert onto the rack while still warm.
Step 12 –When cooled enough, re-invert the Cheesy Monkey bread onto a platter or cutting board, cheese-side up.
Step 13 –Serve while warm and melty.
