Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cans Pillsbury Grands! biscuit dough
- ¼ cup flour
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 21 ounce can blueberry pie filling
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 3 ounces cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan generously.
- Unroll the biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters or sixths.
- In a small bowl, mix together the flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter until crumbly. Transfer this mixture into a gallon-size Ziploc bag, then add the cut biscuits. Shake the bag to coat the biscuits evenly.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberry pie filling and 4 tablespoons of butter. Bring the mixture to a low boil over medium heat, stirring constantly for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Pour the blueberry sauce over the coated biscuit pieces and gently stir to combine.
- Transfer the biscuit and blueberry mixture into the prepared bundt pan. Place the bundt pan on a baking sheet to catch any drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes or until the bread is golden brown.
- While the bread is baking, prepare the icing by mixing together the powdered sugar, cream cheese, milk, and lemon juice until smooth.
- Once the bread is baked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes. Then, carefully invert it onto a serving plate.
- Drizzle the warm monkey bread with the prepared icing and serve immediately.
Notes
- You can use any type of fruit pie filling (like cherry or apple) if you prefer a different flavor.
- Ensure the bread cools for a few minutes before inverting to avoid any spilling.
