Definition of monkeybread: A sweet yeast bread formed by arranging small clumps of dough(which are usually dipped in melted butter) in 3 or 4 overlapping layers in a pan.The pan can be round, oblong or tube-shape.After baking, the clumps cling together to form a solid loaf. Monkey bread can be sweet(flavored with raisins, nuts cinnamon and sugar) or savory (often made with grated cheese). 2. A gourdlike fruit of the baobab, a thick-trunked tree ative to Africa. The extremely high-starch fruit is generally only eaten by monkeys.
Yes, I have had sweet and savory types of monkey bread. I work at a grocery store bakery, and we make monkey bread everyday, except we label it 'pull apart bread'. Ours comes in two flavors:Garlic paprika and walnut pesto. here is a recipe if you'd like to try your hand at making some of your own from your very own kitchen:)

Yes, I would like to have the recipe of the monkey bread. It sounded so delicious. I've always wanted to make a bread but I don't know how to make one. I've never tried making one of my own since bread is so easy to get here and usually I will just buy.
However I admit the home-made bread and bought bread taste differently. If we bake our own bread, we can have fresh ones which is very delicious. I also like to eat donuts and I think maybe donuts and breads share the same recipe?
Your monkey bread is very tempting. I really want to taste your garlic paprika and walnut pesto. Please give me the recipe. Thanks!
