How cute is this mini cheesy garlic monkey bread?

My family had so much fun eating this. Especially my kids.

They love being allowed to “play with their food” and eat with their hands.

I think it’s safe to say that we pretty much all love garlic bread in any form.

It’s a huge hit and classic for a reason.

This is especially great though because it’s served in these awesome individual, pull apart portions.

Every bite is loaded in garlic buttery cheesy goodness.

This recipe would make a great after school snack or appetizer to any meal. It’s also great for game day or for serving a crowd.

I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you’ll love it just as much as my family and I do.

Mini Cheesy Garlic Bread Variations

I like this recipe as it is, but here are some ways to switch it up if you’d like to.

Cheese- shredded mozzarella cheese works wonderful for this recipes if you’d prefer that over cubed mozzarella.

Bread- frozen (and thawed) dinner roll dough would work here instead of biscuit dough.
Bigger Portions- If you’re not into this style of the mini portions, this can be made in a bundt cake pan or regular bread pan, too. Just be sure to spray them with cooking spray and adjust the cooking times.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°

First, cut each biscuit into about 8 little squares.

Then, add the melted butter, grated garlic, fresh parsley, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and mozzarella cheese.

Next, mix everything together until it’s nice and evenly combined.

Now, spray a muffin tin with cooking spray.

Then, roll the biscuit mixture into small balls (about 6-8 cubes of biscuits each) and add them to the center of each muffin tin.

Finally, sprinkle the tops with parmesan cheese, let them cool slightly and carefully remove them with a butter knife. Serve warm and enjoy!
