monkey bread and breakfast-in-bed

Pin It


Every. Birthday. Breakfast. In. Bed. that's our goal, anyway! our kiddos get to choose their breakfast treats, and as we're raising foodies, sometimes it's quite involved. thankfully, they almost always ask for monkey bread, and this new one i found from allrecipes.com is the simplest one i've made. (i should note: i added a LOT a few grinds of Trader Joe's coffee-sugar-chocolate seasoning blend and replaced the raisins with dried cranberries.  i also left out the optional walnuts, because 'tho they are my FAVORITE, the birthday boy prefers his monkey bread without nuts.  the cranberries were pushing it.  for him.  i, on the other hand, loved them, and they would've been enhanced by the nuts.  just sayin'.  but i digress.)


who says it always has to be from scratch? birthday monkey bread, bacon, coffee (he's sixteen today, my baby is...), fresh canteloupe and navel oranges, egg-over-medium-with-the-white-crispy, and birthday breakfast is served. check and mark.


go make someone breakfast in bed.  :)
