Old World Sourdough
Reagan's Monkey Bread
My granddaughter Reagan and I have been making Monkey Bread for breakfast at the lake for years. From the time she was old enough to push a chair up to the counter to help, she has been at my side every time we have this delicious treat. After many attempts we think we have it perfected!!
Drenched in a gooey, ultra-smooth sauce, this perfected version of your favorite breakfast treat can be made the night before and let raise overnight.
