    Not knowing what monkey bread is, I gotta say this looks disgustingly fleshy.

      Yeah it kind of looks like a bundt cake made out of boneless chicken wings

          Oh absolutely not. I would scarf down that entire chicken mess and spend the next two days regretting all my life choices

              We’ll just have to fight to the death over it. Either way, both of us will end up regretting a few things

    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’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.

          Oh my what a contrast seeing the inside. Yeah that looks delicious. Now I want some.

      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.

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

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

    That must be excellent, someone already ate it before.

    Sorry I could not resist, thanks for sharing.

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