Brown Sugar-Bacon Monkey Bread
Directions
- In a large skillet cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of the drippings in skillet. Drain bacon on paper towels; crumble bacon. Add brown sugar, Maple Nut Butter, and whipping cream to the skillet; stir until melted. Stir in vanilla and spice.
- Lightly grease a 10-inch fluted tube pan; set aside. Cut thawed bread dough into 1- to 1-1/2-inch pieces. Arrange one-third of the bread pieces, half of the crumbled bacon, half of the pecans, and half of the raisins in prepared tube pan. Drizzle one-third of the whipping cream mixture evenly over the bread pieces. Top with another one-third of the bread pieces and the remaining bacon, pecans, and raisins. Drizzle with another one-third of the whipping cream mixture. Top with the remaining bread pieces and the remaining whipping cream mixture.
- Cover and let rise in a warm place until almost double in size (about 45 minutes).
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until bread springs back when lightly touched. Cool in pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Invert onto a serving platter; remove pan. Serve warm.
