Cooking Tips
Here are a few tips that I’ve found helpful when making bundt pan baklava.
- Grease your bundt pan thoroughly to prevent sticking. A non-stick spray or a light coating of
butter works well. This is particularly important for recipes like Baklava Monkey Bread. - Mix the cinnamon sugar evenly to coat each piece of biscuit dough. This ensures each bite of your Baklava Monkey Bread is flavorful.
- Drizzle the
