A delightful and easy-to-make monkey bread recipe featuring the tropical flavor of pineapple, coated in a sweet cinnamon-sugar mixture and baked to golden perfection.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a Bundt pan generously with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
Open the biscuit cans and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces.
2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
In a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Stir well.
2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough
Dip each biscuit piece into the melted butter, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, toss the butter-coated biscuit pieces into the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated. Place the coated biscuit pieces into the prepared Bundt pan.

Drain the crushed pineapple well. Scatter the drained pineapple pieces evenly over the biscuit pieces in the Bundt pan.

In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, butter, and evaporated milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth. Bring to a gentle boil for 1 minute, then remove from heat.

Pour the caramel sauce evenly over the biscuit and pineapple mixture in the Bundt pan.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the monkey bread is golden brown and cooked through. If it starts to brown too quickly, you can loosely tent it with aluminum foil.
Let the monkey bread cool in the Bundt pan for about 10 minutes. Then, place a serving plate over the Bundt pan and carefully invert it to release the monkey bread onto the plate. If any pieces stick, gently place them back into position.
Serve warm. Enjoy!
Notes
This pineapple monkey bread is best served warm. You can adjust the amount of cinnamon-sugar mixture to your preference. Ensure the pineapple is well-drained to avoid a soggy bottom.
