  • “I halved the recipe and baked in a 4×8 loaf pan, the proportion was perfect. I also used real butter in place of the oleo. Yum!”

  • “This is a great recipe. I took the suggestion of real butter and added 1 tsp. of pure vanilla. Thanks for the suggestion bhnash and henryclay. I added 1/2 c. of rasins. This is a keeper!UPDATE: 7-16-2010, We are still enjoying this recipe. Recipe has been requested by many. Thanks for posting.”

  • “Everyone raved about this…Great taste. I added 1 tsp of vanilla to the sauce.”

  • “I’ve had monkey bread before, but not with pecans!This was fantastic.The family cleaned it up in one sitting!”

  • “This was fabulous.And it was a big hit with my entire family.I had a little trouble with the amount of oleo called for though. The recipe calls for 3/4 to 1 1/2 cups oleo, so I split the difference and used 1 cup.It was too much (and I ended up with a lot of the sweet gooey glob on the counter when I inverted the Monkey Bread onto a platter).So next time I’ll use the minimum stated of 3/4 cup.But even despite my sticky mess this was decadently wonderful.”

  • “This is a wonderful recipe that I have been making for years.I make if for the grandchildren. In fact, I just made one last week!I don’t use the pecans because the grandchildren like it better without them……..this is a must try recipe!!!!!!Pell City”
