Instructions
For the Dough | |
|---|---|
| 1. | Combine warm water, brown sugar, and yeast in a large mixing bowl and let rest until frothy, about 10 minutes. Add canola oil and stir. Set aside. |
| 2. | Sift together all-purpose flour and salt in a separate bowl. |
| 3. | Mix the flour mixture into the yeast mixture and knead until dough forms a sticky ball. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover the bowl and allow the dough to rest in a warm place until doubled in size, approximately 1 hour. |
| 1. | In a bowl, mix white sugar and ground cinnamon together. |
| 2. | Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and oil a fluted tube pan like a Bundt® pan. |
| 3. | Punch down the risen dough, roll it into 1-inch balls, roll the balls in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, and arrange in a single layer in the prepared tube pan. Sprinkle with additional cinnamon sugar and drizzle with a little canola oil. Continue layering with the remaining dough balls and cinnamon sugar. |
| 4. | Bake in the preheated oven until puffed up, about 25 minutes. |
| 5. | Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix confectioners' sugar and milk to make the glaze. Drizzle the glaze generously over the warm monkey bread. |
