Time 3h

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 (.25 ounce) packages quick-rising yeast (such as Fleischmann's RapidRise®)
½ cup lukewarm water
4 ½ cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 eggs, beaten
½ cup warm milk
½ cup white sugar
½ cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup brown sugar
½ cup butter
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 cup raisins
1 cup walnuts
¼ cup butter, melted
¾ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup raisins

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water in a large bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes. Stir flour, eggs, warm milk, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter, and salt into the yeast and water until the mixture is a moist and sticky dough.
  • Put dough in a greased bowl and cover with a wet towel. Set aside in a warm place until dough doubles in size and holes poked into dough with a finger stay indented, about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours.
  • Stir brown sugar, 1/2 cup butter, honey, and corn syrup together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Pour the topping mixture into the bottom of 2 9x13-inch non-stick baking dishes. Sprinkle 1 cup raisins and walnuts evenly onto the topping mixture.
  • Punch down dough and roll into a rectangle shape 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.
  • Brush 1/4 cup melted butter over the dough rectangle. Stir 3/4 cup white sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl; sprinkle over the butter. Sprinkle 1 cup raisins evenly over the dough. Roll dough around the filling into a cylinder; cut into 3/4-inch slices and arrange into the baking dishes. Set aside to rest for 20 minutes or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Bake rolls in preheated oven until no longer doughy in the middle, about 25 minutes. Immediately flip onto a serving platter, transferring topping onto rolls, and serve warm.

- Use fresh yeast for best results. If using active dry yeast, proof it in warm water with a little sugar before adding it to the dough. - Make sure the butter is softened to room temperature before mixing it with other ingredients. - Roll out the dough to a rectangle that is about 1/2-inch thick. This will ensure that the buns are not too thick or too thin. - Spread the filling over the dough evenly, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.

Pinch the edges to seal. - Cut the log of dough into 12 equal pieces. - Place the buns in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. - Cover the buns with plastic wrap and let them rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until they are doubled in size. - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). - Bake the sticky buns for 30-35 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. - Let the sticky buns cool for a few minutes before frosting them.
