Apple Fritter Monkey Bread is a pull-apart treat combining soft biscuit dough, caramelized cinnamon-sugar apples, and a sweet glaze—like a mashup of monkey bread and apple fritters.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cans (16.3 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough
  • 2 apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 12 tablespoons milk (for glaze)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan well.
  2. In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In a skillet, cook diced apples over medium heat for 3–5 minutes until slightly softened. Set aside.
  4. Cut biscuit dough into quarters. Toss dough pieces and cooked apples in the sugar mixture until coated.
  5. Layer the apple and dough mixture into the prepared bundt pan.
  6. Combine melted butter and vanilla extract, then pour evenly over the dough in the pan.
  7. Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden and cooked through. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a serving plate.
  8. Whisk powdered sugar with milk to form a glaze. Drizzle over the monkey bread before serving.

Notes

  • Use tart apples like Granny Smith for balance in sweetness.
  • Serve warm for best texture and flavor.
  • Great for brunches, holidays, or as a dessert centerpiece.
