Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough by combining warm milk and yeast in a bowl. Let sit until frothy. In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, and butter, then incorporate the milk mixture to form a soft dough.
  2. Knead on a floured surface for about eight minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl and let rise for one hour.
  3. Make the filling by mixing brown sugar and cinnamon. Roll out dough into a rectangle, spread softened butter over it, then sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture on top.
  4. Roll tightly into a log and cut into pieces. Place in a greased baking dish.
  5. For the topping, melt butter with brown sugar and heavy cream until combined; stir in chopped pecans and pour over the buns.
  6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 25 minutes until golden brown.

Notes

– Use fresh ingredients for optimal flavor.

– For added depth of flavor, toast pecans lightly before adding them to the topping.

– These sticky buns can be prepared ahead of time; simply cover and refrigerate overnight before baking for even more flavorful results.
