Monkey Bread

A friend of mine from Massachusetts gave me this recipe, and if you are a bread lover like me, you'll LOVE this one. I've made this with wheat flour and it's delicious. Much denser, but tasty. I usually don't use as much butter, either.

1 egg
1 1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup shortening
4 1/2 cup flour
2 tsp yeast
1 tsp salt
1 /2 cup butter

Mix all ingredients except the butter. Melt butter in bundt pan. Let dough rise until double. Roll 1/2 inch flat and cut into rounds. Dip tips of rounds in butter and place in a bundt pan. Bake @ 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes. You'll have to keep checking to see when it's done depending on your oven and bundt pan. Turn upside down and remove from pan.
