We love ooey gooey bread of just about any kind. I remember the first time I made monkey bread. Mr. Pinkcakeplate was not a fan because I stuffed it with cream cheese. He is not a fan of cream cheese at all. This delicious Orange Monkey Bread has no stuffing and I promise you will not even miss it.

I love it when a recipe comes together easily and this Orange Monkey Bread is at the top of  my list. The hardest part about this recipe is zesting and juicing the oranges. The rest is so easy! I love using Rhodes Frozen Rolls for this recipe another thing that makes this recipe so easy. The Orange Monkey bread is so good. I am not a fan of orange anything but this bread made me a fan of monkey bread! I could not believe the amazing orange caramel like sauce the sugar, butter and orange juice made. It permeated the rolls which was what made them so delicious.

I think these would be great for Christmas morning or when ever you have company stay over. If you like orange and bread then this is a must make for you and your family!
