My friend in NY introduced me to it a couple years ago and I
haven’t had it since. I walked into our
staff breakfast this morning and there were TWO huge loafs of monkey bread
there. Now I came prepared, I brought my
own yogurt and granola so I wouldn’t be tempted to eat…. UGH! All I wanted to do was eat the entire loaf of
sugary goodness. But I didn’t! Seriously, I should get a metal. This stuff is delicious. I may try to make it at home… I could make
homemade dough and use raw sugar. Not
sure what to substitute for the brown sugar though? Maybe molasses??? Thoughts?
Ps- As I am uploading this a funfetti cupcake appeared as if
by magic at my computer desk. I
definitely ate half ALL (minus the icing... that helps right?) of it before deciding my hardboiled egg was a smarter snack
choice….
You can make raw brown sugar, just mix 1 cup raw sugar and 1 tbsp molasses (for light brown sugar) or 2 tbsp for dark brown sugar. Blackstrap molasses has the most iron in it aka healthier. Yay monkeybread!
