Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Milk
• 4 tablespoons Butter (unsalted)
• 1 large Egg
• 1 cup Brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 6 tablespoons Butter (unsalted, melted)
• 0 Cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.

Step 2

In a small saucepan, heat the milk and 4 tablespoons of butter until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm but not boiling (around 110°F/45°C).

Step 3

Add the milk-butter mixture and the egg to the dry ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for 7-10 minutes by hand or 5-7 minutes using a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Transfer the dough to a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Prepare a bundt pan by spraying it generously with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. In another bowl, melt the remaining 6 tablespoons of butter.

Step 6

Punch down the dough and divide it into small pieces (about 1-inch balls). Roll each piece into a rough ball shape.

Step 7

Dip each dough ball into the melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon-brown sugar mixture to coat. Layer the coated dough balls evenly in the prepared bundt pan.

Step 8

Once all the dough balls are in the pan, drizzle the maple syrup evenly over the top.

Step 9

Cover the bundt pan with plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 20-30 minutes until slightly puffed.

Step 10

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the monkey bread for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. If the top begins to brown too quickly, cover the pan loosely with aluminum foil partway through baking.

Step 11

Allow the monkey bread to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes before inverting it onto a serving plate. Serve warm and enjoy the gooey, maple-filled goodness!
