Pumpkin Monkey Bread Muffins
These pumpkin monkey bread muffins are a great dessert to have in the fall.
Fall is here and we are eating all things pumpkin!
From pumpkin chocolate chip bread, pumpkin dip, pumpkin dump cake, copycat Starbucks pumpkin scones, pumpkin pound cake, pumpkin truffles and of course, these pumpkin monkey bread muffins. Whatever it is, if it has pumpkin or pumpkin spice, we are eating it.
These pumpkin monkey bread muffins are a delicious pumpkin-y treat for this fall. They are easy to make and taste super delicious.
We took a shortcut making these pumpkin monkey bread muffins by using store-bought refrigerated cinnamon roll dough. You can find this in the refrigerated section at your grocery store.
We love these muffins and here are just a few reasons why:
- They're super moist and fluffy
- Incredibly easy to make and take so little time
- baked in a muffin tin so they're the perfect individual size

How to Make Pumpkin Monkey Bread Muffins
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
Step 2: Add the cinnamon roll dough pieces to the muffin cups.
Step 3: Heat the pumpkin pie spice, brown sugar, butter, and pumpkin in a small skillet over medium-low heat, stirring often. Continue cooking until the butter is melted and the sugar has dissolved.
Step 4: Spoon the mixture evenly over the top of each muffin. Place a pan under the muffin pan in the oven to catch drips.
Step 5: Cook for 20 to 25 minutes, until the cinnamon rolls are cooked through.
Step 6: Allow to cool in the pan until safe to touch, then place a cookie sheet over the top of the pan and flip the muffins onto the pan.
Step 7: Drizzle the cinnamon roll icing over the top of the muffins before serving.
