Savory Holiday Monkey Bread
I love monkey bread. I love that it’s a quick, easy, and delicious way to pack a lot more flavor into any traditional biscuit dough. Usually monkey bread is sweet and is made as more of a breakfast or even as a dessert. Such as my cherry pie version, or my pumpkin spice one! But, not much can beat the strawberries and cream monkey bread.
Today though, I was craving tomato soup and some crunchy bread. It’s chilly out and that traditional meal sounded very comforting. But then! I thought better of myself. Why make a boring plain old grilled cheese when I could make something drinkable, dipable, and fun instead?!
Savory monkey bread to the rescue! Unlike the sweet versions, this monkey bread is intended to be savor and served as a side or appetizer for lunch or dinner. Of course, go big or go home… am I right? I couldn’t just stop at savory. Instead I made this into a monster montage of several different fun flavors.
Each bite of this bread is rolled into one of six different combinations to leave you with one large pile of awesome in the end. We’ve got cranberry and cracked pepper, ‘everything’, parmesan and rosemary, pecan, cheddar and chive, and herbed parsley!
Like I said, this bread is perfect for serving along side some soup, or even as a hot appetizer with some sort of spread or dip. I love it because it’s great for a crowd; making a large potion that is sure to have something for everyone!
