Instant Pot Monkey Bread

If your family loves monkey bread as much as mine does, then you’ll love making my instant pot monkey bread! Yes…I made it in my instant pot. We always have snacks ready to go for my when my nephews get home, and I was way behind on time today. I didn’t have that huge amount of time to devote to making a snack.

Then I became curious, and asked myself if I could actually make monkey bread in my instant pot. I mean, I’ve made parmesan potato wedges (sous vide style), chicken parmesan, and other things; I’ve never made a traditionally “baked good” in it before

Instant Pot Monkey Bread
Prep Time 3 mins Cook Time 21 mins Total Time 0:24 Serves 2

Ingredients

1 can of southern buttered Grands biscuits
1/2 cup of sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon
1/2 stick of butter
1/2 cup of light brown sugar
1 piece of foil.

Directions

In a large bowl or plastic ziplock bag, add sugar and cinnamon. Combine well.
Cut 4 biscuits in quarters, and to sugar mixture, and coat thoroughly.
Place sugar coated biscuit pieces into a mini loaf pan.
Repeat the process for the other loaf pan.
Add butter and brown sugar into a small bowl, and place in the microwave for 45 seconds. Once butter is melted, stir throughly with a fork. Evenly distributed your caramel sauce you made between the two loaf pans.
Add 1 cup of water to your IP, and place 2 medium sized ramekins in the bottom of your IP (face up). Yes, you can totally use your trivet it came with. I just like the extra space it gives from the water level.
Place both loaf pans onto ramekins, and cover the top of the loaf pans with a piece of foil.
Place on Manual High Pressure for 21 minutes, and NPR for 5 minutes...then do a QR.
Take out and serve!
