- To make the monkey bread ahead of time, prepare the dough and let it rise according to the recipe. Then, shape the dough into balls and place them in the prepared baking dish. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to overnight. When ready to bake, remove the baking dish from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for 30 minutes. Then, bake the monkey bread according to the recipe.
- To make the monkey bread even more gooey, brush the tops of the dough balls with melted butter before baking.
- If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just be sure to adjust the baking time accordingly.
