Cinnamon Sugar Doughnut Holes/Monkey Bread
So in a attempt to adjust and make a monkey bread recipe Gluten Free and low carb, I took another recipe and modified it removing dairy, and some other subs. What I got was not the monkey bread I used to make....BUT DID make a huge pan of GLORIOUS cinnamon Sugar Doughnut holes. Now that I think about it the one from my child hood we would pour a ton of butter and sugar icing all over it before baking so it was huge gooy mess >.> we also used Pillsbury crescent dough formed into mini balls. This still is close enough to provide some satisfaction....and really addictive.
