This looks so simple and yummy! I love using apples in fall! I’m going to make this recipe this week! Even just baked apples can make my day- add some sugar and biscuits to that! What’s not to love!?

I feel the same way! Thanks Kathy!

Me too!

I have been following you for a long time and have loved many of your recipes. Your Apple Pie Monkey Bread was on Facebook a while back, so I bookmarked it to try later because the actual recipe is not here. The recipe here is for Strawberry Sour Cream Pound Cake (which I love) but I can’t find anything that leads me to the monkey bread recipe.

Hi Lynda, so sorry about that! I switched recipe cards and it didn’t properly transfer over! It’s there now on the post so you should be able to find it more easily! Thank you so much for letting me know!
