This Garlic Parmesan Monkey Bread is a savory, pull-apart treat made by coating biscuit dough pieces in rich garlic butter and parmesan cheese, baked until golden and irresistibly soft. Perfect as a snack, appetizer, or side dish, its combination of fragrant garlic, sharp parmesan, and aromatic herbs creates an addictive flavor that everyone will love.

Ingredients

Scale

Biscuit Dough

  • 2 cans (16.3 oz each) refrigerated biscuit dough

Garlic Butter

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

Cheese and Herbs

  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and minced garlic, stirring well to evenly distribute the garlic flavor throughout the butter.
  2. Prepare Biscuit Pieces: Open the refrigerated biscuit dough and separate each biscuit. Cut each biscuit into quarters or bite-sized pieces to create small dough balls.
  3. Coat Dough in Butter and Cheese: Dip each biscuit piece into the garlic butter mixture, ensuring all sides are coated. Then, toss the coated biscuit pieces in a bowl with the grated Parmesan cheese, dried Italian herbs, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  4. Assemble Monkey Bread: Lightly grease a bundt pan or round baking dish. Layer the coated biscuit pieces evenly in the pan, packing them lightly but allowing space for expansion.
  5. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the assembled monkey bread in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the biscuit dough is cooked through.
  6. Cool and Serve: Remove the monkey bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes. Then, carefully invert the monkey bread onto a serving plate. Serve warm, encouraging everyone to pull apart and enjoy the cheesy, garlicky goodness.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle some fresh chopped parsley on top before serving.
  • You can substitute grated Asiago or Pecorino Romano for Parmesan cheese for a different flavor profile.
  • Use fresh garlic for the best taste, but garlic powder can be used in a pinch.
  • Ensure the biscuits are fully cooked before serving to avoid any raw dough inside.
  • This monkey bread is best enjoyed the same day but can be refrigerated and gently reheated.
