Banana Monkey Bread

Banana Monkey Bread is pull-apart bread coated with a sweet, ooey-gooey glaze and loaded with bananas.If this sounds good to you, be sure to try my Bananas Foster Pull-Apart Bread! Banana Monkey Bread I have my share of monkey bread recipes from Orange Monkey Bread to Apple Fritter Monkey Bread to Savory Breakfast Monkey Bread,  among others.Monkey bread is fun to eat bread that is a pull-apart bread.

It is also known as monkey puzzle bread, monkey brains, sticky bread, Hungarian coffee cake, and probably a few more names that I don’t know.Whatever you call it, this bread gives you a strong banana flavor in every bite, just like a piece of banana bread! Bread Ingredients There are two parts to this recipe–the bread and the caramel coating with bananas.Bananas: You will need 3 ripe bananas for the bread dough and 3 more bananas that will be diced and layered in between the balls of bread dough.

Yeast: I used instant yeast in this recipe.It is also called quick rise or fast-rising yeast.Milk: I prefer whole milk in this recipe.

You could get by with 2% or even 1% milk if that is what you have on hand.Warm it up in the microwave for 30-45 seconds to get it to warm up to 110°F.Flour: In this recipe, you will need bread flour.

Bread flour has a higher protein than other flour (above 12%).It also gives this bread a chewier texture.Bread Dough This bread does have to rise a couple of times, so be aware of that when making the bread.
