    It looks like you got a bucket of orange chicken from the cheap Chinese place around the corner and dumped it on a plate…

    …but I know what monkey bread is and I know it’s delicious

      Yeah, I feel like that’s a core part of the experience here. I don’t know what monkey bread is and this looks absolutely revolting to me.

        Best way to describe it for the uninitiated: think…cinnamon rolls but instead of rolling the dough, you slice it into a bunch of pieces and smash it back together again. After baking, the pieces separate easily

        I’ve never seen it look like fried chicken before, though. This is what I’m used to:

        There are more pictures on this recipe

          I’m dyin, lol

          It’s partially because of the weird shaped bundt pan that has weird curves and ridges, but it’s also because I was lazy and just dredged chunks of dough rather than meticulously rolled balls. I went easy mode.

    I’m pretty sure I saw this stuff growing on the walls in dead space.

        I experiment with cooking all the time… but to experiment with baking? You are a bold one…

      It looks close enough to the Joshua Weissman one, which I’ve tried and can recommend for sweet or savoury variations. I’ve done it like this, and with pizza; it’s basically brioche balls in a bundt pan.

        Right on, Weissman is out there on his videos, but his food is usually phenomenal. Much appreciate the info!

          I wish he would act even weirder. I already know how to cook, I just like watching him do it 😌

    Maybe if it had icing it would be more visually appealing? Or maybe the lighting and photo compression makes it look worse?
