It’s socially distanced outdoor bbq day here at the crooked cabin and I’ve decided to finally make the banana chocolate chip monkey bread which is a terrible dessert to make seeing as it’s traditionally picked at with your hands. Inspiration strikes and it cannot be ignored!
I saw this Tasty video pop up on facebook a very long time ago and kept it saved and bookmarked for the day I felt motivated enough to make it and today was the day. I love monkey bread and I feel like it’s so fun to pick at something with your friends like this and enjoy something sweet and gooey but now with serving forks and in shifts. It’s a little less magical but that’s okay.
Monkey bread is super easy but always fun and I enjoyed the addition of chocolate chips and banana in the building process. This tasty video/recipe is super easy to follow and I think it came out great. Honestly it could’ve used a little more bake time for the middle pieces but I’ve been noticing this oven needs a little more time so that’s just a nuance I have to keep taking into account when I bake here.
I wish we had more people to enjoy it and I feel like in the right crowd it would do super well. Next time I think I’d make them into cupcake sizes just so they’re easier for people to enjoy.
