A Delectable Twist on a Classic Sweet Treat. Ham, turkey, cheese and dijon stuffed into biscuit dough and baked to monkey bread perfection!

Ingredients

  • 2 (16 Oz.) Tubes Refrigerated Biscuit Dough
  • 1/4 C. Dijon Mustard
  • 1 C. Shredded Swiss and/or Gruyere Cheese
  • 1/4 Lb. Deli Turkey
  • 1/4 Lb. Deli Ham
  • 2 Whole Large Eggs
  • 1/4 C. Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • 1/4 C. Turbinado Sugar
  • Raspberry Preserves
  • Powdered Sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. and lightly coat the inside of a bundt pan with non-stick baking spray; set aside.
  2. Open the 2 Tubes Refrigerated Butter Biscuit Dough and cut each in half. Shape the halves into flat circles.
  3. Divide the 1/4 C. Dijon Mustard evenly among the dough along with the 1 C. Shredded Swiss and/or Gruyere Cheese, 1/4 Lb. Deli Turkey, 1/4 Lb. Deli Ham. Fold the dough in over the meat and cheese to seal all edges. (If you end up with any leftover that's okay.)
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the 2 Whole Large Eggs and 1/4 C. Unsweetened Almond Milk. Dip the balls of dough into the egg mixture and then into the 1/4 C. Turbinado Sugar.
  5. Place them into the prepared bundt pan, putting any leftover meat and cheese in along with them.
  6. Set the pan into the oven and cook at about 45 minutes or until browned on top.
  7. Once done, remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 5-10 minutes before turning out onto a serving plate.
  8. Top with Raspberry Preserves and/or Powdered sugar and enjoy!
