Turtle Monkey Bread Recipe

After a long week at school and work, our family really enjoys reconnecting over the weekends. We start it off right with a special breakfast on Saturdays- sometimes we have homemade pancakes, sometimes we have waffles {like these birthday cake waffles}, and sometimes we have an extra sweet treat- Monkey Bread!

There are so many delicious variations of Monkey Bread, but this one is one of our favorites. This Turtle Monkey Bread Recipe includes chocolate chips, caramels and pecans, which make it taste like one of our favorite candies!
