Cooking is one of the things that both of my sons wanted to learn over the summer vacation, so I am holding a weekly cooking class for them. For our first official \u201cclass\u201d, I decided to start with something super simple \u2013 an easy monkey bread recipe with biscuits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monkey bread is something that Michael loved when he was a little boy but I haven\u2019t made it in years. I\u2019m not sure if Sean had ever tasted it before we baked it together but both boys (and their parents!) enjoyed the final product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m glad that we started out with this easy monkey bread recipe because it\u2019s not an \u201cexact\u201d recipe. Monkey bread comes out great even if you don\u2019t follow the steps exactly \u2013 which the boys did not do.

I showed them how to cut the biscuits into fourths, but they preferred to tear them into fourths instead. Then, they made a cinnamon and sugar mixture that they placed into a plastic bag to shake the biscuit pieces in.

At one point, Sean was doing that as he danced around singing Michael Jackson\u2019s \u201cShake it, shake it, baby. Come on now!\u201d However, when I came back after leaving the kitchen for a while, I noticed that (in an effort to save time), Sean was just sprinkling the mixture on a bunch of biscuits on a plate.

I\u2019m all for efficiency, but I don\u2019t think that he realized the purpose of shaking each piece in the bag was so that BOTH sides of the dough would get covered. Michael\u2019s comment was \u201cI\u2019m not sure if the baking life is for me\u201d. Alrighty then!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s interesting\u2026both boys are really exact when it comes to their academic studies, but they are going to have to work on following directions when it comes to cooking and baking. It should be a fun learning process.

At the very least, it will be a fun boredom buster. If you would like to make monkey bread with your kids, here\u2019s the recipe:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
