monkey bread
Sticky cinnamon clusters
Monkey bread is a sweet, sticky pastry made from small balls of dough coated in cinnamon sugar, layered in a pan, and baked until they form a pull-apart mass.
The name comes from eating it by pulling off pieces with your fingers, like a monkey picking at food: We made monkey bread for Christmas morning.
