I’m all about the easy recipes! I mean, I’m a busy mom with plenty to do and I don’t have a lot of extra time to spend in the kitchen. I want delicious food though…it’s just better when it’s delicious and easy at the same time!

This is even more true when it comes to sweets. I’ve got all kinds of easy dessert recipes up my sleeve, from no-bake cheesecake bites to fresh strawberry pie but until now, I’d never tried monkey bread. I don’t know why…I just never got around to it. All that’s changed now though!

You’d think monkey bread would be complicated but the best thing about this easy monkey bread recipe is that there’s a huge shortcut! It uses ready to bake cinnamon rolls from the can which saves you a gazillion steps!
