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

[–] [email protected] 18 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Yeast dough with cinnamon, eaten by plucking pieces of of the loaf.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago

Or monkey brain instead of monkey bread.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

That sounds delicious. I'm getting very mixed signals here

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

But I wanna regret my life choices

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Its really the only way

[–] [email protected] 29 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 15 points 8 months ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago (2 children)

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’ve never seen it look like fried chicken before

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Don't get me wrong, I'd eat it in a heartbeat lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago
[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

It's really good stuff

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

More like monkey brains, right? Its probably still good though.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 8 months ago

im gonna be real with you

this may taste good but doesnt look that appetizing

[–] [email protected] 14 points 8 months ago

I'm pretty sure I saw this stuff growing on the walls in dead space.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 8 months ago

Monkey ~~brain~~ bread

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (2 children)

I love monkey bread.

Would also love to see a recipe lol

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago (1 children)

This was an experiment, gotta write it down, then I can share :)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I experiment with cooking all the time... but to experiment with baking? You are a bold one...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

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

Reminds me of the Mystery Flesh Pit National Park.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago

That must be excellent, someone already ate it before.

Sorry I could not resist, thanks for sharing.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

I like covering the whole thing in the same kind of icing as a cinnamon roll. 🤤

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Mmmmm.... monkey bread!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

God bless monkey bread.

[–] Squirrel 2 points 8 months ago

Are you sure?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

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