Tips and variations
Although this recipe is easy, here are some additional ways to ensure your monkey bread muffins turn out perfectly.
- Do not overcrowd the muffin cups. Leave enough space between the biscuits to allow them to expand and cook evenly. This will ensure that the caramel sauce will spread to every corner.
- Do not overcook: Make sure the muffins are soft and golden.
- Add chopped nuts. I love adding chopped walnuts or pecans. The nutty flavor goes well with the caramel sauce.
