How to Make Monkey Bread

For the Pepperoni Pizza Monkey Bread you will need:

refrigerator biscuits

pepperoni

mozzarella cheese

tomato sauce

olive oil

parmesan cheese

dried basil

Step 1

Open up the tube of refrigerator biscuits and cut each biscuit into quarters.

Place each biscuit quarter into a either a zip-topped bag or a large mixing bowl. I find it easier to use a zip-topped bag, but you can certainly use a bowl or large dish.

Step 2

Add the olive oil, parmesan cheese and dried basil to the bag (or bowl), zip up the top and shake or mix the ingredients together.

Step 3

Create a single layer of the seasoned dough in a small baking dish.

Step 4

Top the layer of seasoned dough with tomato sauce and chopped pepperoni.

Step 5

Next, add a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 6

Top the cheese with another layer of seasoned dough.

Step 7

Finish with additional sauce and mozzarella cheese and place in the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes.

As you can see, this pizza monkey bread recipe is quick and easy to make.

I use my 5-inch baking dish most often for this recipe. It’s the same dish that I use in many of our recipes. Please visit our One Dish Kitchen Store for more information on purchasing this dish.

You can use any smaller-sized baking dish and simply adjust the amount of dough you use depending on the size of your dish. For smaller sized dishes, use less dough. For a larger dish, you may only use one layer of dough.
