Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Maple Bacon Pull Apart Bread.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
Generously spray the interior of a 9-inch fluted tube pan, often known as a Bundt pan, ensuring it’s well-coated for easy release later.
Step 3
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat, turning it occasionally until it reaches a perfect golden brown, which should take about 10 minutes.
Step 4
Once cooked, let the bacon drain on paper towels and crumble it once it’s cool enough to handle, discarding any fatty bits.
Step 5
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the margarine over medium heat.
Step 6
Stir in the brown sugar and maple syrup, bringing this delightful mixture to a boil.
Step 7
Allow it to foam for about a minute before removing it from the heat.
Step 8
In a resealable plastic bag, mix together the white sugar and ground cinnamon.
Step 9
Add 6 to 8 pieces of biscuit dough at a time, shaking the bag until they are thoroughly coated.
Step 10
Place the sugared biscuit pieces on a plate and repeat until all are coated.
Step 11
Pour any leftover sugar mixture from the bag into the maple syrup concoction, returning the saucepan to medium heat and stirring until the sugar dissolves, which should take about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 12
Now, it’s time to layer your masterpiece in the prepared pan: start with a layer of crumbled bacon, drizzle some of the maple syrup mixture over it, and then add a layer of the coated biscuit pieces.
Step 13
Repeat this layering until all ingredients are used, finishing with a final drizzle of the syrup on top.
Step 14
Bake in your preheated oven for approximately 35 minutes, or until the biscuits are perfectly cooked through.
Step 15
Once done, let the monkey bread cool in the pan for 10 to 20 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate, revealing a glorious, gooey treat that’s sure to impress.
Step 16
Enjoy the sweet aroma and the delightful combination of flavors as you dig in!.
