Cinnamon Roll Sticky Buns image

Awesome cinnamon roll recipe to enjoy not only for breakfast, but anytime. This recipe stands on its own without frosting, but you can frost the rolls with your favorite type of buttercream or cream cheese frosting!

Provided by Asgard Ranch

Time 2h35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup low-fat milk
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon sea salt
⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar, or to taste
½ cup unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • Combine 2 cups flour, yeast, and cinnamon for dough in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
  • Combine milk, sugar, and salt in a microwaveable bowl; microwave on high in 1-minute increments until very warm, but not hot to the touch, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add milk mixture to the dry ingredients; mix on low speed until combined. Add melted butter; mix until well combined. Mix in eggs until incorporated.
  • Scrape the paddle attachment and switch to the dough hook. Mix in the remaining flour until dough is fairly easy to handle. Turn out into an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Place over a bowl of hot (not boiling) water and let rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Punch dough down and turn out onto a floured surface. Roll into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Spread softened butter evenly over the surface, then sprinkle with cinnamon, and finally brown sugar. Roll up the rectangle jelly roll-style and cut into 12 equal parts. Place the rolls flat on a parchment-covered cookie sheet and cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, 40 minutes to 1 hour. Don't worry if they don't touch, they will continue to rise when baking.
  • While the rolls are rising, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown on top, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and brush with the remaining softened butter. Serve hot.

1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, beaten
4 cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup butter
¾ cup brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans, divided
¾ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

BROWN SUGAR BUNS OR ROLLS



Brown Sugar Buns or Rolls image

These are kind of like a cinnamon bun, but without the cinnamon and they're chewier. I actually got this recipe in my 7th grage home economics class and have hung onto it along the way! This was originally called Butterscotch Rolls but my daughter insists that they be called Brown Sugar Buns. Bet you can't eat just one!

Categories     Breakfast

Time 27m

Yield 1 Roll, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
1 cup brown sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup milk (I've used skim, 1%, 2% and homo over the years and they all work the same)

Steps:

  • Lightly grease a 12 cup muffin tin (I've used cooking spray and shortening with equal success).
  • Cream together butter and brown sugar in small bowl and place a generous teaspoon of mixture in each muffin cup. Set the rest aside.
  • In a large bown mix together flour, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender, 2 knives or a fork incorporate shortening into flour until they're fully combined.
  • Make a well in the center and gradually add milk, stirring with a fork until a moist dough forms.
  • Turn dough out onto a floured surface and with a floured rolling pin roll as close as possible to a 30 x 30 cm (12 X 12 inch) square. Trim to form a square.
  • Spread reserved brown sugar and butter mixture over top, reaching all 4 sides. An offset spatula works really well for this!
  • Roll dough towards you and reposition seam side down. Slice in half, and then into quarters. Cut each quarter into 3 pinwheels, approx 1 inch each.
  • Place 1 roll in each muffin cup, with the filling up.
  • Bake in a preheated 425 oven for 12 minutes. I find they come out better when I turn my convection off so you may want to try that as well, if it applies. Keep an eye on them for the last couple of minutes -- you want to remove them from the oven while the sugar is still bubbling.
  • Use a spoon to remove them to a rack to cool right away, before the sugar cools. I put waxed paper under the rack to make clean up easier.
  • Enjoy!
