-
(The night before) make bread dough or use prepared dough/biscuits, and let rise if needed. **Look below initial recipe for notes on making this specifically with sourdough.
-
Grease loaf pan.
-
Sprinkle bottom of greased loaf pan with sugar and cinnamon.
-
Roll dough into small balls, about 1 1/2 inches in diameter.
-
Combine cinnamon and sugar, and mix in a small bowl.
-
Warm coconut oil until just melted, and place in a small bowl.
-
Dip each ball into the coconut oil, then in the cinnamon sugar mixture, and then place in the greased loaf pan, layering as you go.
-
Add more oil &/or cinnamon sugar as needed until all of the dough has been dipped.
-
Place loaf pan right in the crock-pot (no water needed).
-
Cover and cook on lowest setting (mine is warm) for 8 hours. Each crock-pot varies so test during the day for optimal results. Alternatively, cook on high for 2 hours, or bake in the oven for approximately 22 minutes at 350 (you can refrigerate prepared raw monkey bread, and bake in the morning so the prep is the night before).
-
After baking/cooking, turn your loaf pan upside down on a platter.
-
Optional, top with glaze of 1/2 cup powdered sugar (or more) and a tablespoon at a time of water or milk.
