Easy to make now I did more to fill the pan
Used
2 cups of warm milk
1 1/2 of Hot water 110 degree

Monkey Bread
Ingredients

1 teaspoon vegetable oil, or as needed
Dough:

¼ cup warm water
2 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon white sugar
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup milk, warmed
1 large egg
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Coating:

1 ½ cups brown sugar
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
½ cup butter, melted

Directions

Lightly grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt) with vegetable oil; set aside.
Make dough: Combine warm water, yeast, and 1 teaspoon sugar in a large bowl. Let stand until bubbly and foamy, about 5 minutes.

Stir in 1 cup flour, warm milk, egg, 3 tablespoons sugar, butter, salt, and vanilla extract until combined. Add remaining 2 1/2 cups flour. Mix and knead until dough comes together in a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and punch down gently to deflate. Divide dough into small or medium balls.

Make coating: Mix together brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Dip each dough ball in melted butter, remove with a fork, then roll in cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated.

Arrange coated dough balls in the prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and let rise until almost doubled in size, about 45 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes. Invert onto a large plate; cool for 10 minutes before serving.
 
I just looked out the window and saw THREE adult o'possums in the yard down by the woods. I think one was a big male, the other two were smaller and one of those had one or two babies with her. Hard to tell because of the low light.

The baby(s) were on the ground at first, then latched onto momma so she could carry them around. I have a lot of possums running around here!
