This is the most amazing caramel pumpkin monkey bread you will ever make and it is really easy too!! The best Fall breakfast or dessert I’ve ever made!
I will say with all honesty that is this caramel pumpkin monkey bread is the MOST delicious recipe I have ever created!! If you’ve never made monkey bread with biscuits from the refrigerated section of the store it is an easy thing to do and you can mix it up with lots of different flavors too like this one for Fall. It’s so addicting and of course easy to do. Let me share with you how to make it so you can drool over it too. 😉 (originally published 8/16, updated)
Seriously….it is amazing!!
We have bought monkey bread before in the frozen section and it is okay but once you realize just how easy monkey bread is to make you will taste the difference AND you can fool around with the flavors like I did adding pumpkin to this one for the Fall.
Beware…it is addicting.
So like I said this monkey bread is easy to make because you use two cans of cinnamon rolls as the base and a few ingredients as the “sauce”.
You probably have most of the ingredients in your cupboard other than the caramel bits and maybe a bundt pan but just in case here are the main items you will need:
Especially now that it is Fall I love pumpkin anything but you could omit that part during other times of the year and just make this a caramel cinnamon monkey bread recipe…it’s very versatile.

I would like to try this today! Do you use regular cinnamon rolls or Grand cinnamon rolls?
The Typical Mom says
I used regular, for Grands you could just increase the time just a bit…just look and adjust slightly.
