Total time: 1 ½ hours
Recipe Notes: Vegetarian Friendly

Ingredients

• 8 ounces pepper Jack cheese, shredded (2 cups), divided
• ¼ cup grated Parmesan
• ¼ cup Sir Kensington’s Classic Mayonnaise
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• ¼ cup finely chopped parsley
• ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• Kosher salt and black pepper
• 1 pound cold pizza dough, cut into 1-inch pieces
• Nonstick vegetable oil spray

Instructions

1. Combine 1⅔ cups pepper Jack, Parmesan, mayonnaise, shallot, parsley, and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl; season with ½ teaspoon each salt and black pepper. Add dough pieces, a few at a time, to cheese mixture and gently toss to coat.
2. Coat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with nonstick spray. Arrange dough in a single layer in prepared skillet; scrape any excess cheese mixture from bowl over dough. Cover skillet with a kitchen towel and let rise until slightly puffy, 45 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, heat oven to 375°F (190ºC) with rack set in middle position. Bake monkey bread until top is lightly browned and cheese is melted, about 20 minutes.
4. Sprinkle remaining ⅓ cup pepper Jack cheese over bread; continue baking until edges are golden brown and firm and cheese is melted, 10–15 minutes more. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce!
