Bacon Monkey Bread









The first time I looked up the recipe for monkey bread, it called for raisins! Ewwwww!! I thought to myself, there has to be a better mix in. I just omitted the raisins and went on with life. Since then, i've made monkey bread about 6 or 7 times. I finally figured out the perfect mix in. BACON! Sweet sweet bacon. The result was pretty awesome. You should try it.
Ingredients
3 cans of biscuits
1 cup of white sugar
2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1 stick of butter or margarine
2 cups of brown sugar (packed)
8 strips of bacon (already cooked and diced)


Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F Grease one Bundt pan.
Mix white sugar and cinnamon in a plastic bag.
Cut biscuits into quarters.
Shake 6 to 8 biscuit pieces in the sugar cinnamon mix.
Arrange pieces in the bottom of the prepared pan.
Sprinkle bacon among the biscuit pieces as you go along.
Continue until all biscuits are coated and placed in pan.
In a small saucepan, melt the margarine with the brown sugar over medium heat. Boil for 1 minute. Pour over the biscuits.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 minutes. I overbaked mine a bit and the top got hard. Let bread cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a plate. Do not cut! The bread just pulls apart.
