Line a large muffin tin with papers or conversely you could spray them with cooking spray. Â Mix the sugar and cinnamon together and get out 2 small cans of refrigerated biscuits.

Cut each biscuit in half and roll in a ball.

Roll the balls in the sugar mixture and then place them in the prepared muffin tin.

In a small saucepan melt 1 stick of butter.  Yes it’s true, these are not diet food.  🙂

I added about 7 balls to each muffin cup.

Top each with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Â See…definitely not diet food. Â But oh my….tasty!

Drizzle 1 tablespoon of butter over each and then separate the remaining butter between the 6 muffins.

Ready to hit the oven! Â 350 for about 20-24 minutes. Â Big muffins take time. Â If you chose to make smaller muffins, adjust the time accordingly.

Zest 1 orange and chop up coarsely. Â Add the zest and 2 tablespoons of fresh orange juice to 1/2 cup of powdered sugar and whisk to combine.

Shhh…I may have had a few spoonfuls of this.
Drizzle the glaze over the cooked muffins. Â Resist eating them straight from the oven. Â Ouch!

A quick take on the classic Monkey Bread only in muffin form. Drizzle with a fresh orange glaze and you have breakfast in no time.
