Tips for Making Herb and Cheese Monkey Bread

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor. Try rosemary, thyme, oregano, or basil.
  • Use a sharp cheddar cheese for the best melting and flavor.
  • Cut the bread cubes into small pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the bread cubes from cooking evenly.
  • Bake the monkey bread until it is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will take about 20-25 minutes.
  • Serve the monkey bread warm with a dipping sauce of your choice.
