Bacon Cheeseburger Monkey Bread Recipes

BACON MAC AND CHEESE MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Put the butter in a medium bowl. Brush the Bundt pan with some of the butter to lightly coat.
• Cut the biscuits into quarters. Combine the Cheddar and powdered cheese mix in a large bowl and stir together.
• Working in batches, toss one-third of the biscuits in the melted butter, roll them in the cheese mixture to lightly coat and add them to the Bundt pan so they are nestled together in an even layer; sprinkle with one-third of the bacon. Repeat to make 2 more layers of biscuits rolled in cheese and the bacon. Sprinkle the top with any leftover cheese mixture and drizzle with any leftover butter.
• Cover the pan with foil and bake for 35 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until puffed and golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes more. Loosen the bread from the sides of the pan with a knife or offset spatula. Carefully invert the pan onto a serving plate, remove the pan and serve hot.

CHEDDAR-BACON-GARLIC MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350ºF.
• Cut half the cheese into 32 small cubes; shred remaining cheese.
• Mix butter, garlic and parsley until blended. Drizzle 1 Tbsp. butter mixture onto bottom of 9-inch round pan sprayed with cooking spray. Place 1 each cheese cube and bacon piece on center of each dough piece; press dough around cheese and bacon until completely enclosed. Place in prepared pan.
• Sprinkle with shredded cheese; drizzle with remaining butter mixture.
• Bake 35 min. or until golden brown. Cool 10 min. before removing from pan to serve.

MAPLE BACON MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat the inside of a 9-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with cooking spray.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels; crumble and remove extra fat.
• Melt margarine in a small saucepan over medium heat; stir in brown sugar and maple syrup. Bring mixture to a boil; cook and stir until mixture begins to foam, about 1 minute. Remove saucepan from heat.
• Mix white sugar and cinnamon in a resealable plastic bag; add 6 to 8 biscuit pieces at a time and shake until well coated. Pour any remaining sugar-cinnamon mixture into brown sugar mixture. Place saucepan over medium heat and cook and stir until sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Sprinkle 1/4 the bacon pieces in the bottom of the tube pan; pour in about 1/4 the brown sugar mixture. Arrange 1 layer of biscuit pieces in the tube pan; sprinkle in 1/4 the bacon pieces. Drizzle about 1/4 the brown sugar mixture over the biscuit pieces. Continue layering until all the ingredients are used, ending with a drizzle of brown sugar mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are cooked through, about 35 minutes. Allow to cool in pan, 10 to 20 minutes; invert onto a serving plate.

BACON MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp; drain. Combine bacon with cheese and, if desired, onion and green pepper. Cut biscuits into quarters; add to bacon mixture. Stir in butter and toss to coat. Transfer to a greased 10-in. tube pan., Bake until browned, about 30 minutes. Cool 10 minutes before inverting onto a serving platter. Refrigerate leftovers.

BACON CHEDDAR MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• In small bowl, mix Herb Dipping Sauce ingredients. Cover and refrigerate.
• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray loaf pan, 9x5x3 inches, with cooking spray.
• In large bowl, stir Bisquick mix, salt, 3 tablespoons of the softened butter, the milk, egg, crumbled bacon and cheese. Mixture will be crumbly. Using hands, work the mixture until thick dough forms. Roll dough into 1-inch balls; place balls in loaf pan. Drizzle with remaining 3 tablespoons melted butter.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. Serve with sauce.

CHEESEBURGER MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Stir together the ketchup, mayonnaise, pickles and mustard in a medium bowl. Season with salt and set aside.
• Arrange the bacon in a large skillet and heat over medium. Cook until golden and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate; pour the drippings out of the skillet and reserve for another use. Cut the bacon into 1-inch pieces.
• Heat the oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. When it starts to shimmer, add the ground beef, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, breaking the meat up with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned in spots and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring constantly, until just translucent and tender, about 2 minutes. Use a large slotted spoon to scoop the meat mixture into a medium bowl, leaving the liquid behind. Stir in 1 cup of the ketchup sauce. Let cool slightly. Fold in the chopped American cheese.
• Put the sesame seeds in a shallow bowl.
• Separate each biscuit into 2 thinner rounds (the dough is layered, so it will divide easily). Flatten a piece of dough between your hands. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the ground beef mixture into the center of the dough and top with a piece of bacon. Gather the dough around the filling and seal into a little ball. Dip the smooth bottom of the ball into the sesame seeds. Place the ball into the prepared bundt pan, seed-side down, and repeat until the bottom of the pan is covered. Split the remaining biscuits and stuff with the bacon and filling using the same method -- but don't dip in the sesame seeds. Add to the bundt pan in an even layer.
• Bake the monkey bread until golden brown and the balls are no longer doughy, 50 to 55 minutes. Invert onto a platter and remove the pan. Let rest for 10 minutes. Serve warm with the remaining ketchup sauce for dipping.
