Pro Tips:

• Let The Monkey Bread Cool: Give this Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread time to cool, but you don’t want it too much. Remove the bread from your pan after about 10-15 minutes. This way it easily comes out of the Bundt Cake Pan.

• Timing: Since every air fryer cooks somewhat differently, it’s important that you watch your cinnamon roll monkey bread, as it cooks up.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What Cinnamon Rolls To Use

I recommend that you use Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls for this recipe. They are so good in a bundt cake!

If you do not want to make your own cream cheese icing, you can always drizzle the cream cheese frosting that comes with the cinnamon rolls on top.

Does Cinnamon Roll Monkey Bread Need To Be Refrigerated?

The monkey bread, without the cream cheese frosting, does not need to be refrigerated. Once, you add the cream cheese frosting, you will need to refrigerate the monkey bread. Store any leftovers in an airtight container. It will last for about 2 to 5 days when stored in the refrigerator.

How To Make It Ahead Of Time

You can easily prepare this ahead of time. I usually prepare the recipe as directed, and then warp it tightly with saran or plastic wrap. Place into the refrigerator until ready to air fryer. Because of the egg mixture, being poured over the cinnamon rolls, you should bake it up, within 12 hours. Otherwise, you will end up with a soggy mess.
