Can honestly say I'd never heard the phrase monkey bread before, but the garlic and herb one looks perfect to accompany lasagne or spaghetti and meatballs for mopping up sauce.
Can confirm we have the bread here in South Africa but we call it stuff like "pull apart buns". You know, normal names. I've heard someone call it monkey bread before, although I didn't know they were referring to this
@@madeniquevanwyk yeah, we have it in the UK too but usually just called tear and share bread. Also never seen sweet versions, usually it's sundried tomato or olive or garlic and herb
This video is a prime example of why I love the *Babish Culinary Universe* so much. I've made Monkey Bread for over three decades. People beg me for it because I make it with love and caramel 😉. But until right now, *I never thought to make a SAVORY Monkey Bread!!* Kind of blew my mind. Thanks Babish! 🤗🥰🍞🥣
This years Thanksgiving, my family asked me to provide the bread/biscuit element to the dinner. I decided to go with the second, Herb and Garlic treatment version of the Monkey Bread recipe Andrew provided in this episode. I made a few adjustments, made a double batch, and in the end it was a HUGE success!! Even better, my neighbors raved about the bread, when I told them it was a Babish inspired recipe, They got excited! I had to show them this video to show them how it was made, and they loved how they got to eat a Binging with Babish recipe for Thanksgiving tonight! Thank you for this video, I cannot recommend this dish enough! It was amazing!
I was thinking as you were making your monkey bread muffins "I feel like brioche is a bit too sweet for ham and che-" and right as I was thinking that you covered it in sugar and jam! You madman!
My family makes the sweet one every year for Christmas morning breakfast, and it's wonderful every time. We use a bundt pan so the appearance has more of a curvy smooth look, but the taste is fantastic.
Monkey bread was one of the first things my dad taught me how to bake as a kid, hes gone now but this episode reminds me of him. also reminds me, we missed out making savory ones lol
This is just pure nostalgia for me. Every Christmas morning, my mom makes monkey bread, just like the sweet one. The only difference is she uses premade dough from dinner roles, still really tasty! I’ll have to make Babish’s version for her this year!
The child inside of me was confused for a second because telling a child "Monkey bread" raises a lot of questions before they realize its a type of bread
i made this today and LET ME TELL YOU IT WAS AMAZING. i made the sweet version at the end. it is so delicious, even though i didnt have a bundt pan it still worked out! 1000000% recommend i want to tell the whole world how easy and perfect this recipe is. thank you so much!
My mother lines her sweet version on the bottom with half a pack of instant butterscotch pudding, so that when it is inverted upon completion, a cascade of molten caramel butterscotch flows over the whole thing. The other half of the pack is in the rolling mix, so there’s a base amount of gooeyness covering each roll. It is an experience all its own.
Monkey bread is my favorite dessert from my childhood that I never remember exists. Thanks for reminding me about it If you ever get the chance look into Eastern Orthodox Pascha Bread for this. It’s the perfect bread for monkey bread and French toast
I've made/eaten monkey bread hundreds of times and I've only ever done it one way... the cinnamon sugar way, but instead of homemade bread I pretty much just use cut up Pillsbury biscuits every time 🤷🏿♂️ I will definitely be trying some of these other techniques! Thank you Babish 🙏🏿
I'm a pretty consistent viewer for years, so if I missed this video let me know. But Andrew, can you do a Basics episode about different recipes and techniques for making your own beef jerky! Savory, sweet, spicy, in the oven, in a smoker, dehydrator, etc
Always loved Monkey Bread as a kid. Grandma would make it for me and my little brother when we were kids using biscuit dough rolled in brown sugar and cinnamon and right before it was made, a glaze made out of melted butter and more brown sugar, poured right on top after she pulled it from the oven. Let it rest for a few minutes then turned it out so each bit was coated in that sticky, sweet goodness.
Nah...I don't want to have to choke Ramsay out the first time he calls Babish a donkey, lol. I love Ramsay but I want him to keep a wide berth if space away from any chef I enjoy on UA-cam.
i litearlly just got done adding all your kitchen stuff to a wishlist (since most of it appears to be sold out atm) and ii come back to youtube and NEW VIDEO?! did the gods smile upon me today?
Never knew this was called monkey bread, it’s probably and American thing, I’m Australian and we call it pullapart. (I think monkey bread sounds cooler)
im having trouble deciding whats better in this episode, the garlic herb butter or the bread rising time lapse. One fills me with joy and satisfaction, bringing extra flavor and taste to an already satisfying product, and the other is garlic and butter so who knows
Whenever we made monkey bread, we only ever did it with cinnamon / sugar. I'd never considered the possibility of other toppings so it almost seems sacrilegious to me. We made ours using cans of buttermilk biscuits cut into quarters into a bundt pan
I loved this! Here in Australia we call this “pull apart bread” (super imaginative huh?) I know this is a random question, but I’d love to know where your cheese grater is from?! Thanks for making such awesome content :)
Babish, thanks to you I passed my cooking exam with flying colours, you've been an inspiration to me ever since I decided to become a chef while in a wheelchair after having surgery on both feet, you've been my inspiration for years now, thank you.
Lil' tip regarding that dessert monkey bread: If you roll the spheres in a mixture of sugar, cinnamon and shredded coconut, and place some raisins between the spheres in the bundt pan, you get an old Norwegian coffee cake we like to call "Bola's Café Ring".
When cooking any thing Spam related (Such as Spam Sarnies or Lobster Thermidor Aux Crevettes with a Mornay Sauce, garnished with Truffle Pâté, Brandy and a Fried Egg on top, and Spam) Always where the best Viking gear money can buy.
Monkey bread in the south has always been sweet biscuit dough rolled in sugar and cinnamon then glazed with brown sugar butter vanilla extract and cream.
Babish was making a Monte Cristo-inspired monkey bread, so it makes sense that he'd top it with jam. A Monte Cristo is very similar to a Croque Monsiuor (I may have spelled that wrong, whoops), but instead of being topped with a fried egg, it can be (but not always) be topped or served with raspberry jam. I've never tried it, but it can't be that gross if it's so popular, right?
@@mollyscozykitchen4693 You definitely have a point. I’m always willing to try something different. Who knows, it could be amazing and my next favorite food. And like you said, if those are so popular, they must be doing something right with the raspberry jam.
That sweet monkey bread looks just the way we made it in Boy Scouts except we used cast iron dutch ovens. The caramelization on the bottom was always top notch.
In the Middle East, we stuff it with unsalted cream cheese and bake it. Then we let it rest for a few minutes and cover it with honey. Tastes amazing tbh.
Have you considered cooking any food from Disney’s Amphibia, bugs and all? Something like the crickets-n-cream ice cream from s2e1 or the lilly pad thai dishes from s1e9, or the grub dumplings in s1e19.
My mom makes the sweet monkey bread the same way. Only difference she uses homade caramel regular salted peanuts on top. Also puts a lil cinnamon cream cheese in the pull apart pieces. 😋
Apes together strong
This is the way.
Mmmmm Monkey

Before we got to the third version I really thought Babish was considering the ham and cheese version the "sweet" monkey bread of the group
babish- “okay so monkey bread obviously starts with-“
my brain- “monkeys”
To that I say: Fair enough. I'd kind of assume so, too. (;
I said the same thing, then added, "So, what you're going to want to do first is head down to your local wildlife safari..."

I love how everyone in the comments is just so okay with the idea of Babish shoving monkeys into bread
hey if its in the recipe then thats what it takes
Gots to see it through my boy
Monkeys arent threatened by deforestation and general destruction of their homes, their greatest threat is Babish wanting some bread.

One time, my sisters were making monkey bread and they overfilled the pan to the point where some of it bubbled over and started a fire in the oven
Pro tip: put some koscher salt in your garlic butter. It really enhances the garlic’s flavour and makes it sooo much better
Andrew: *makes monkey bread*
Monkeys: *start to break down the door to his house so they can raid his kitchen*
I really enjoy the way that he does the promotional content for sponsors in the same calm soothing voice over as everything else.
