Bacon Cheeseburger Pull Apart Bread Recipes

CHEESEBURGER MONKEY BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Stir together the ketchup, mayonnaise, pickles and mustard in a medium bowl. Season with salt and set aside.
• Arrange the bacon in a large skillet and heat over medium. Cook until golden and crispy, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate; pour the drippings out of the skillet and reserve for another use. Cut the bacon into 1-inch pieces.
• Heat the oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. When it starts to shimmer, add the ground beef, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, breaking the meat up with a wooden spoon, until lightly browned in spots and just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the onion and cook, stirring constantly, until just translucent and tender, about 2 minutes. Use a large slotted spoon to scoop the meat mixture into a medium bowl, leaving the liquid behind. Stir in 1 cup of the ketchup sauce. Let cool slightly. Fold in the chopped American cheese.
• Put the sesame seeds in a shallow bowl.
• Separate each biscuit into 2 thinner rounds (the dough is layered, so it will divide easily). Flatten a piece of dough between your hands. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the ground beef mixture into the center of the dough and top with a piece of bacon. Gather the dough around the filling and seal into a little ball. Dip the smooth bottom of the ball into the sesame seeds. Place the ball into the prepared bundt pan, seed-side down, and repeat until the bottom of the pan is covered. Split the remaining biscuits and stuff with the bacon and filling using the same method -- but don't dip in the sesame seeds. Add to the bundt pan in an even layer.
• Bake the monkey bread until golden brown and the balls are no longer doughy, 50 to 55 minutes. Invert onto a platter and remove the pan. Let rest for 10 minutes. Serve warm with the remaining ketchup sauce for dipping.
