Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a bundt pan or a 10-inch round cake pan.
Step 2: Prepare the Blueberry Filling
- In a small bowl, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Gently toss to coat the blueberries and set aside.
Step 3: Prepare the Dough
- Open the biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters.
- In a large bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Dip each biscuit piece in melted butter, then toss in the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.
Step 4: Assemble the Monkey Bread
- In the prepared bundt pan, layer half of the coated biscuit pieces, followed by half of the blueberry mixture.
- Repeat with the remaining biscuit pieces and blueberries, ensuring even distribution.
Step 5: Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before inverting onto a serving plate.
Step 6: Prepare the Glaze
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more milk or powdered sugar as needed.
Step 7: Serve
