Tips:
- Mise en Place: Assemble all ingredients and equipment before beginning. This will help ensure a smooth and efficient baking process.
- Use High-Quality Ingredients: Opt for fresh pecans, pure maple syrup, and real butter to elevate the flavor of your caramel pecan rolls.
- Proof the Yeast Properly: Activate the yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar before adding it to the dough. This will ensure the dough rises properly and results in light and fluffy rolls.
- Knead the Dough Thoroughly: Spend a few minutes kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. This will develop the gluten and give the rolls a chewy texture.
- Let the Dough Rise in a Warm Place: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size. This will take about 1-2 hours, depending on the temperature.
- Roll the Dough Out Evenly: Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a large rectangle. Make sure the dough is evenly rolled out so that the rolls are uniform in size.
- Spread the Filling Generously: Brush the dough with melted butter, sprinkle it with the brown sugar mixture, and scatter the chopped pecans evenly over the surface. Don't be shy with the filling; it's what makes these rolls so irresistible!
- Roll Up the Dough Tightly: Starting from one of the long edges, roll up the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the edges together to seal the roll.
- Cut the Rolls Evenly: Use a sharp knife to cut the roll into evenly sized pieces. Place the rolls in a greased baking dish, cut side up.
- Let the Rolls Rise Again: Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise in a warm place until they are puffy and almost doubled in size. This will take about 30-45 minutes.
- Bake Until Golden Brown: Preheat your oven to the desired temperature and bake the rolls until they are golden brown and the caramel is bubbling. The exact baking time will vary depending on your oven, so keep an eye on the rolls to prevent overbaking.
