Using Mini Bundts
When baking I like to make things personal and making individual pull-apart bread does just that! It's not really any extra work and it's pretty easy to do.
Instead of putting all the balls of dough into one bundt pan you just divide them up into 4... it's that simple! I used mini bundt pans similar to these and they came out so cute!
Filling the Mini Bundt Pans
When I made these, I will a little generous of how much I filled them. I ended up filling them about ¾ of the way up and they puffed up over the top of the pans slightly. To prevent this, I would fill them about ½ of the way with the dough balls.
To make the balls more flavorful, I used the remaining butter and cinnamon mixture to drizzle over layers of the balls. This prevents the insides of the bundt to be drier than the outside. It made the insides sticky and yummy!
