Expert Tips

Flavor boost—For extra pumpkin flavor, double the butter and brown sugar. Add an additional 1/2 cup of pumpkin and save 1 cup of the pumpkin-caramel mixture to drizzle over your warm bread as it comes out of the oven!

Serving Suggestions—This recipe tastes great with a mug of hot apple cider!

Pretty easy to make and turned out well with two cans of biscuits. Will definitely make again.

I am not a huge fan of pumpkin, but I tried this out for a friend, and we all enjoyed it! My very picky 3-year-old, who refused to even touch the s'mores monkey bread I made a while back, had 3 servings. I did end up with a lot of leftover pumpkin and decided to freeze it. We'll see how that turns out when I make this again...which I definitely will!

YUM!! Followed the tips on 2 16 oz cans and came out great. The bottom was crispy caramel glazed and the top was gooey delicious.

Personally, I loved this recipe! The taste is wonderful! I used the leftovers to make a french toast strata for a brunch I went to and it was gone in seconds. Also, after making this several times, this is what works perfectly for me: 1)USE A BUNDT CAKE PAN, and 2)USE 2 EA 16.3 OZ CANS OF BISQUITS. Note: Use 4 cans ONLY if you happen to have the 7.5 oz cans (most major stores only have the 16.3 oz size). Bottom line: If you like pumpkin, caramel and bread...you should make this immediately!

As many have said, 4 cans seem a bit much, and from looking at other monkey bread recipes I guess the writer used small ounce Grands biscuit cans? I used one 16.3 oz Grands Buttermilk Flaky Layers and halved the rest of the ingredients as well. I also used a popover pan (muffin tin would work as well) and made individual breads that baked for 12 mins. Came out great!
