Makes 12 servings
Ingredients:
1 recipe of the Delicious Slicing Bread Dough (Below)
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 Tbsp. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 medium Granny Smith or McIntosh apple, peeled, sliced and coarsely chopped
4 Tbsp. (1/2 stick) butter
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans, optional
Directions:
Prepare the Delicious Slicing Bread, adding the vanilla to the dough. Set aside.
Lightly grease a 10 cup Bundt or fluted pan.
Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. toss 1 Tbsp. of the sugar mixture over apples in a medium bowl and stir to coat. Set aside.
In a microwave-proof bowl, melt the butter in the microwave on medium high for 30 to 40 seconds, until melted. Stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. pour into the bottom of the prepared pan and sprinkle half the pecans, if using, over the brown sugar mixture.
Spray a 1/4 cup scoop with vegetable spray. Scoop out balls of the bread dough and arrange in one layer over the pecan and brown sugar mixture. (This will yield about eight scoops, or half the dough.) Sprinkle half of the remaining cinnamon sugar over the balls of dough.
Spread the apples over the dough and top with a second layer of balls of dough, using all the remaining dough. Sprinkle with the remaining cinnamon sugar and the remaining pecans over the top.
Cover loosely with the plastic wrap and set in a warm, draft-free area to rise about 45 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375. Remove the plastic wrap and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the top is brown.
Remove to a wire rack and cool for 10 minutes. Invert onto a serving plate. Let cool an additional 10 minutes. Pull apart, or slice with a bread knife. The monkey bread is best served warm, and can be reheated in a 350 oven for 5-7 minutes.
Delicious Slicing Bread Recipe:
Makes 1 loaf
Ingredients:
3 1/3 cups Bread Flour #1 (Below)
1/2 cup non-fat, dry milk powder, or milk substitute
1/2 cup lightly packed light brown sugar
2 1/4 tsp. instant or active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups, plus 2 Tbsp. water (105 to 110 degrees
2 large eggs
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Directions:
Spray an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 inch or 9 x 5 inch loaf pan with vegetable spray.
In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer, add the flour blend, milk powder, brown sugar, and yeast and mix to combine. Mix the water, eggs and vegetable oil in a separate bowl. Add to the dry ingredients. Beat on low for 1 minute. Beat on medium high speed for 3 minutes or until the mixture is smooth, shine and has thickened.
Scrape the dough into the prepared pan. Cover with lightly oiled plastic wrap and set in a warm, draft-free area until the dough rises to the top of the pan.
Preheat the oven to 375. Remove the plastic wrap and bake on the middle rack for 40-45 minutes, until the top sounds hollow when tapped and the internal temperature reaches 190-200 degrees.
Remove and turn out on to a wire rack. Cool completely before slicing.
