Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F.

Add the biscuit pieces to the bag, seal it and shake/toss it around until all the biscuit pieces are coated in the orange sugar. Pour the pieces into a bundt or tube pan and set aside.
• In a medium pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the brown sugar, vanilla and orange juice until just barely combined. Pour the mixture all over the biscuit pieces, scraping the pan to get all the butter/brown sugar out. Let it settle for a second, then place the pan in the oven.
• Bake until the top of the biscuits are golden brown, about 25 minutes. Transfer the pan to a rack and let it sit for at least 10 minutes (but no more than 15), then turn the cake out of the pan onto a cake plate. Let cool briefly before serving.

Add milk, butter, 1/2 flour, salt, and remaining sugar; mix with an electric mixer until combined and no longer lumpy. Add rest of flour and knead in by hand for 5 to 6 minutes. Cover and let rise for 1 hour.(Alternatively, use the soft dough cycle on your bread maker.).
• Spray a fluted ring pan with cooking spray. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.

ORANGE CARAMEL MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Brush a bundt or angel food pan well with butter.
• 2. Measure sugar into a small mixing bowl. Zest both oranges into the sugar, and mix with a fork thoroughly. Pour prepared sugar into a gallon zip bag. Squeeze juice to measure 1/4 c and set aside.
• 3. Melt butter in the same bowl you mixed the sugar in. Trying to keep the biscuits cold, open tubes and cut each biscuit in 1/4's.
• 4. COAT BISCUIT PIECES: Roll biscuit pieces in melted butter(you may have to rewarm the butter to keep it liquid). Drop each buttered piece in the zip bag with orange sugar. Toss to coat well. Remove biscuit pieces from sugar and drop into prepared pan, trying to keep the level fairly even.
• 5. MAKE CARAMEL: Using the remaining orange sugar, add fresh sugar to it to measure 3/4c. Place sugar in a heavy sauce pot over medium high heat and melt the sugar WITHOUT STIRRING. Pick up the pan and swirl it around as it becomes liquid. When it reaches a LIGHT golden color, quickly add the orange juice and swirl to stop the browning. Then add the corn syrup, salt and butter. Continue to cook (should be simmering)for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour over the biscuit pieces and bake for 25-30 minutes.
• 6. Remove pan from oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Then carefully place large plate over the top and invert onto the plate. Allow the Monkey Bread to cool for at least 10 minutes, before eating!

Steps:

• Make the monkey bread: Preheat the oven to 375˚ and coat an 8-inch (6-cup) Bundt pan with cooking spray.
