Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread Cake
When I saw this recipe (originally titled Cinnamon Pecan Pull-Aparts by Minnie Olson of New York) in Gooseberry Patch’s brand new Hometown Harvest, I knew that we would love it. However, I had no idea how amazing of a fall breakfast dish it would be though.

Holy Moley.

This Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread Cake was so easy and fun to make– just like regular monkey bread.

And here is the genius of it all… you use the icing from the Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls to ice the cake!

It just drips beautifully off the cake creating an I-have-to-have-a-bite quality about it!

The resulting breakfast (or anytime) cake is nothing less than decadent with the comforting fall flavors of cinnamon and nuts.

Bonus feature? If any part of the cake falls apart when getting it out of the tube pan, just put it back together and add the icing and no one knows the difference! The icing is the perfect yummy solution to making it all stay together.

Okay, there may just be a piece that falls that there is no other solution but to feed it to the baker… if you are up to it 😉
