A gooey, pull-apart, single-serve vegan monkey bread loaded with cinnamon caramel sauce and made perfectly in just minutes.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tbsp plant-based milk
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup or sugar
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (like canola or coconut)
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp almond butter or peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp coconut milk or oat milk
  • Pinch of salt (for caramel)

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  2. Add plant-based milk, maple syrup, and oil. Mix to form a soft dough.
  3. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and ground cinnamon.
  4. Roll the dough into small balls and coat each in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  5. Layer the coated dough balls in a microwave-safe mug or ramekin.
  6. In another small bowl, whisk together almond butter, maple syrup, coconut milk, and a pinch of salt to create the caramel sauce.
  7. Pour half of the caramel sauce over the dough balls.
  8. Microwave for 60–90 seconds, or until the dough is puffed and cooked through.
  9. Drizzle the remaining caramel sauce on top and serve warm.

Notes

  • Adjust microwave time based on wattage—start with 60 seconds and add time in small increments.
  • Use peanut butter for a nuttier, stronger flavor or almond butter for a milder taste.
  • Best enjoyed immediately while warm and gooey.
