How to make Pull-Apart Bread

These types of bread, also known as bubble bread or pull apart bread, probably get their name from their funny shape. Bubble bread is a handsome and spectacular bread made with yeast dough from which small pieces are pinched or cut, then dipped into melted butter and poppy seeds or currants. These pieces rise in a tube pan to triple their original height and resemble a tall, studded crown.
