Greetings! Time for some monkey bread! Had to share this one with you. Super easy, inexpensive and delicious. Even if it doesn’t come out of the pan in one beautiful piece, don’t worry, eat it and you won’t even care. If you don’t have an angel food cake pan you can use a tube pan, or bundt pan. No worries, use what you have. Even a loaf pan or two would work. Add in some raisins and some nuts and you have a delicious alternative to more complicated sticky buns but its fancier than just using the refrigerator cinnamon rolls. I hope you try this and I hope you enjoy it. As always, Happy Eating!

Add in 1 cup of brown sugar and mix well until it looks like a caramel in the bottom of the pan. Place 12 pineapple rings on top of the sugar/butter mixture and place one stemmed maraschino cherry in the center of each pineapple ring. Gently pour the cake batter over the pineapple rings and spread to the corners to even out the batter. Give the pan a good rap on the counter to break any air bubbles and place in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Check to make sure the cake if firm. If you touch it lightly and it …
