Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Monkey Bread is a delicious and savory twist on the classic sweet monkey bread. Here’s a simple recipe to make this flavorful dish:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 cans (16.3 ounces each) refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan or a 10-inch tube pan.
- Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until it’s browned and cooked through. Use a spoon to crumble the sausage as it cooks. Once done, remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. Scramble the mixture in a skillet over medium heat until the eggs are cooked but still slightly moist. Remove from heat and stir in the cooked sausage and shredded cheese.
- Assemble the Monkey Bread: Cut each biscuit into quarters. Dip each quarter piece into the melted butter, then layer them into the prepared bundt pan. After adding a layer of biscuit pieces, spoon some of the sausage, egg, and cheese mixture over them. Continue layering the biscuit pieces and egg mixture until all ingredients are used.
- Bake: Place the bundt pan in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the monkey bread is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Allow the monkey bread to cool in the pan for a few minutes before carefully inverting it onto a serving plate. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
