Ingredients

• 2 cups warm water
• 0.5 cups packed brown sugar
• 4.5 teaspoons active dry yeast
• 0.5 cups canola oil
• 5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon canola oil , or as needed
• 1 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 teaspoons milk

Instructions

1. 1 Combine warm water, brown sugar, and yeast in a large mixing bowl and let rest until frothy, about 10 minutes. Add 1/2 cup oil and stir. Set aside.
2. 2 Sift flour and salt together in a bowl.
3. 3 Mix flour mixture into the yeast mixture and knead until dough forms a sticky ball. Coat the inside of another bowl with oil; transfer dough to the oiled bowl and turn to coat. Cover the bowl and let dough rest in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
4. 4 Meanwhile, mix white sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.
5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
6. 6 Punch down risen dough and roll into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture and arrange a layer in the prepared tube pan. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and drizzle with a bit of oil. Continue layering with remaining dough balls and cinnamon sugar.
7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until puffed up, about 25 minutes.
8. 8 Meanwhile, mix confectioners' sugar and milk together in a bowl. Drizzle glaze generously over the warm monkey bread.
