It looks like you got a bucket of orange chicken from the cheap Chinese place around the corner and dumped it on a plate...

...but I know what monkey bread is and I know it's delicious

Yeah, I feel like that's a core part of the experience here. I don't know what monkey bread is and this looks absolutely revolting to me.

Best way to describe it for the uninitiated: think...cinnamon rolls but instead of rolling the dough, you slice it into a bunch of pieces and smash it back together again. After baking, the pieces separate easily

I've never seen it look like fried chicken before, though. This is what I'm used to:

There are more pictures on this recipe

I’ve never seen it look like fried chicken before

I'm dyin, lol

It's partially because of the weird shaped bundt pan that has weird curves and ridges, but it's also because I was lazy and just dredged chunks of dough rather than meticulously rolled balls. I went easy mode.

Don't get me wrong, I'd eat it in a heartbeat lol

It's really good stuff

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

More like monkey brains, right? Its probably still good though.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

im gonna be real with you

this may taste good but doesnt look that appetizing

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

I'm pretty sure I saw this stuff growing on the walls in dead space.

I love monkey bread.

Would also love to see a recipe lol

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This was an experiment, gotta write it down, then I can share :)

[–] Big_Boss_77 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I experiment with cooking all the time... but to experiment with baking? You are a bold one...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

It looks close enough to the Joshua Weissman one, which I've tried and can recommend for sweet or savoury variations. I've done it like this, and with pizza; it's basically brioche balls in a bundt pan.

[–] Big_Boss_77 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right on, Weissman is out there on his videos, but his food is usually phenomenal. Much appreciate the info!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I wish he would act even weirder. I already know how to cook, I just like watching him do it 😌

Reminds me of the Mystery Flesh Pit National Park.

God bless monkey bread.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Mmmmm.... monkey bread!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Are you sure?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Maybe if it had icing it would be more visually appealing? Or maybe the lighting and photo compression makes it look worse?
