My Baking Diary: Cinnamon Monkey Bread
>> Thursday, October 4, 2012
Also known as the "pull apart" bread, this is something very new to me & because it looks easy to bake, I decided to try it out. Only after baking it did I find out what exactly "monkey bread" is - a type of sticky bread. Hmm...the recipe doesn't have yeast. It certainly won't feel like bread....it feels more like a sticky cake! I wonder if I did it right :S According to Eggless Cooking's recipe, the cake is supposedly moist...I can testify that it's moist, but is the texture's consistency (of moist-ness) right? I won't know since I'm no cake expert :( But I'll make a guess that maybe I shouldn't "pack" the bread too much nor roll it like a real bread dough cos it may loss its crumbly texture...*shrugs* my 1st time...
The recipe that I used was adapt from Eggless Cooking. It's a vegan site, which is kinda good for me since I don't have that many eggs left in my fridge to bake any cakes :P
Ingredients:
Part A
2 cups All Purpose Flour
1/2 cup Sugar
1 tablespoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
5 tablespoons cut into 5 pieces Cold Butter
Part B
1 cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips
2/3 cup Milk
Part C
1/4 cup Sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
3 tablespoons melted Butter
Directions:
My satisfaction level for tonight's Monkey Bread is roughly 3.5/5.0 only. I'm not extremely pleased, but I'm not utterly disappointed as well. I guess such "bread" is best eaten warm...perhaps with a nice cup of coffee!
Midnight Monkey,
