I am so happy to be in vacation for one week! The elementary school where I work is closed, the kids stay at home. It’s a really great occasion for me to cook and bake new recipes:)
So this morning, I was so excited to make a Ham and Cheese Monkey Bread. It’s my first time making one monkey bread. What a funny name:)
When I talked about my new recipe with my friend Muriel, she was sure I made a cinnamon monkey bread. Because traditionally, monkey bread is sweet. Next time, I will bake a cinnamon monkey bread.
I love it. It’s so fast and easy to prepare. And it’s delicious.
You can eat this bread for appetizer with any sauce of your choice. Or you can bake it simply for a picnic or a dinner with vegetables and a green salad.
