When I was trying to think of a unique recipe for this Sunday's crock-pot creation, I thought it would be cool to use my crock pot for something other than a savory dinner type of meal. I began searching for breakfast recipes you could make in the crock pot and I saw a few for cinnamon rolls in the crock-pot. I decided that I would want to try to go for monkey bread since I really cannot rival my mom's or my aunt's cinnamon roll recipes. I think this is a great idea for christmas morning because you can prepare ahead, and let these cook up while you and your family are opening presents!
You will need:
A crock-pot
4 7.5 oz cans of pillsbury buttermilk rolls (these a little smaller than the grands ones)
1 c granulated sugar
6 tablespoons cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 sticks of melted butter
Buttercream frosting
Start off by cutting each buttermilk dough into quarters. Make sure your dough is cold, so they are easier to cut.
Please the cut up dough in a large plastic bag with the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Shake well to coat each piece of dough.
Cook on LOW (mine has 8 and 10 hour settings - use the 8 hour setting if you have the option, the 10 hour one was too slow) for approx. two hours or until they are cooked throughout.
Ooey-gooey goodness on the bottom. |
P.S. Now I am going to sit down to watch the game with some hot wings and monkey bread for dessert. LETS GO BIRDS! E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!
