You could. You just need to be certain that it’s a dough recipe that is remade and it should work out just fine. Depending on what you choose, your monkey bread might be a bit fluffy or flaky as well.

In the recipe, it says to divide the remaining butter mixture in to two bowls. It then states to set the second bowl aside. I do not see where the recipes provides any other direction for the butter mixture. Am I missing something? This sounds delicious, just need clarification please.
the second lot is for the second loaf as this recipe makes enough for two bundts of Monkey bread.
No where do you list the size of IP you are using. I think you would make this in the larger IP.
This is made in the 6 quart but if you make it in a larger pot the instructions are the same.
