Time 1h5m

Yield 12 buns

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1/2 cup pecans, chopped in very large pieces
1 package (17.3-ounces/ 2-sheets) frozen puff pastry, defrosted
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2/3 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a 12-cup standard muffin tin on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the 12 tablespoons butter and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Place 1 rounded tablespoon of the mixture in each of the 12 muffin cups. Distribute the pecans evenly among the 12 muffin cups on top of the butter and sugar mixture.
  • Lightly flour a wooden board or stone surface. Unfold 1 sheet of puff pastry with the folds going left to right. Brush the whole sheet with the melted butter. Leaving a 1-inch border on the puff pastry, sprinkle each sheet with 1/3 cup of the brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of the raisins. Starting with the end nearest you, roll the pastry up snugly like a jelly roll around the filling, finishing the roll with the seam side down. Trim the ends of the roll about 1/2-inch and discard. Slice the roll in 6 equal pieces, each about 1 1/2 inches wide. Place each piece, spiral side up, in 6 of the muffin cups. Repeat with the second sheet of puff pastry to make 12 sticky buns.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, until the sticky buns are golden to dark brown on top and firm to the touch. Be careful - they're hot! Allow to cool for 5 minutes only, invert the buns onto the parchment paper (ease the filling and pecans out onto the buns with a spoon) and cool completely.

Easy homemade sticky bun recipe

Provided by Kate @ I Heart Eating

Categories     Breakfast

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/3 cup milk (low-fat ok)
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter
3 1/2 teaspoons instant yeast
3/4 cup warm water (105F - 115F)
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/4 cup butter (softened)
6 tablespoons butter (melted)
½ cup brown sugar (packed )
¼ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup dark corn syrup
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons water
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans (optional)

Steps:

  • Grease a 9x13-inch metal baking pan; set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, stir milk, sugar, and butter together. Heat over low heat just until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Cool to about 100-105 F.
  • Pour the milk mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer.
  • Add the yeast and warm water.
  • Add 2 cups flour and salt to yeast mixture. Using a dough hook, mix on low speed for about 1 minute.
  • With the mixer still going, add remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time. Mix about 1 ½ minutes, or until dough starts to clean the sides of the bowl.
  • Knead on low speed for about 2 more minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic - the dough will still be slightly sticky to the touch.
  • Place dough in a greased bowl, turning it to grease the top. Cover the dough with a clean, dry dish towel.
  • Let it rise in a warm place, free from draft, for about 10 minutes.
  • While dough is rising, prepare the topping.
  • Whisk melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, corn syrup, and salt together in medium bowl until smooth.
  • Add water and whisk until combined.
  • Pour mixture into prepared pan. If necessary, tilt pan to get mixture to cover pan. Sprinkle evenly with pecans, if using. Set aside.
  • Turn the dough onto a floured surface, and roll into a 12x16-inch rectangle.
  • Stir filling ingredients together, and spread over dough. Since the filling is a little crumbly, I gently press it into the dough to help it stick.
  • Roll dough up lengthwise, pinching seam to seal.
  • Cut into 12 pieces, and place over topping in prepared baking dish. I use a serrated knife to cut the dough.
  • Cover the baking dish with the dish towel, and let the dough rise for about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 F.
  • Bake at 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown.
  • Tent with aluminum foil, and continue to bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until baked through.
  • Let the sticky buns cool in pan for 5 minutes.
  • Place a serving dish over the pan, and carefully invert pan. Be careful as topping will be hot.
  • Remove pan, and replace any topping that has fallen off.
  • Let buns sit 10-15 minutes before serving.

2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons butter, softened
½ cup white sugar

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. This means using fresh milk, eggs, and butter, as well as good-quality flour and sugar.
  • Make sure the butter is cold before you add it to the dough. This will help the buns stay flaky and light.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the buns tough.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size. This will ensure that the buns are light and airy.
  • Bake the buns in a preheated oven. This will help them rise evenly.
  • Brush the buns with melted butter as soon as they come out of the oven. This will help them stay moist and flavorful.
