Gluten Free Monkey Bread

Prep Time 1 hour
Cook Time 35 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 35 minutes

Ingredients
  

For the dough

  • 1 pkg Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix
  • 1 1/2 c warm water 105-110 degrees + pinch sugar
  • 1 packet active dry yeast
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 tbsp oil

For the coating

  • 1/2 c - 3/4 c white sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice

For the sauce

  • 1/2 c butter 1 stick
  • 3/4 c brown sugar
  • pinch cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
 

  • 1. Turn oven to 200 degrees. When it is finished preheating, turn the oven OFF and leave the door closed. Spray a bundt pan with oil cooking spray.
  • 2. First, measure water in a glass measuring cup or place in glass bowl. Add a pinch of sugar to help the yeast have something to "grow" on. Add yeast and allow to proof 5- 10 minutes.

  • 3. In a large bowl (or stand mixer bowl), add room temperature eggs and oil. Using the paddle attachment (if you don't have a stand mixer, just use a hand mixer), stir eggs and oil. Then add proofed yeast water.
  • 4. Finally, add the Bob's Red Mill Pizza Crust mix. Combine thoroughly.
  • 5. Transfer dough to an large (preferably glass) bowl. Cover dough (either with towel or plastic wrap), and place in warmed oven to proof dough for 45 minutes. After dough has proofed, remove from oven, uncover, and allow to come to room temperature. (I stuck mine in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.)
  • 6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    In a small bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. (If you don't have pumpkin pie spice, simply use more cinnamon instead.)
  • 7. Retrieve cooled dough. Using the tip of a spoon, drop bits of dough in sugar mixture and loosely roll into balls. Place rolled dough balls in bundt pan, and fill bundt pan.
  • 8. After all dough has been rolled, melt butter in a small sauce pan. Add brown sugar, and a pinch of pumpkin pie spice if desired. Pour melted butter mixture over top of dough balls.
  • 9. Place bundt pan on top of cookie sheet (just in case it cooks over!) and bake in preheated oven fr 30-35 minutes.
  • 10. Once finished baking, remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes. (Not a moment longer, or the cooled sauce may cause it to stick in the pan!) Invert monkey bread onto serving dish. Serve warm.
