Sticky Buns - Amazing Pecan Rolls

 

Gingermom’s AMAZING Pecan Sticky Buns

 

Put about 2-3 TBS of brown sugar, a splash of vanilla, some maple syrup (about 1-2 TBS) and about 2-3 TBS of melted butter in a PAM’d square or round 8x8 pan  - add chopped pecans – maybe a ½ cup or more (or could use sliced almonds or walnuts instead of pecans) – stir all together.  It becomes a layer of goodness! 

 

Unroll Crescent Roll dough (an 8-pack or Crescent Dough…roll thinner or two 5-packs of Crescent Dough – can use the butter or regular, but I haven’t tried the Hawaiian Roll or honey version – doesn’t appeal to me!).  Roll between two sheets of Pam’ed wax paper until the perforations are sealed or in the case of the dough – until it is somewhat thinner.  Peel off the top layer of wax paper and spread softened butter on it.  Sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar mix (could add a bit of nutmeg) and roll up in a long log.  Cut in half, then in half on each side, then into thirds for each quarter - making 12 small rolls (or fourths for the 5-pack version), then turn them on their side and evenly distribute in the pan on top of the “sticky” mixture. 

 

Bake at 350* for about 15 minutes, then start watching every 2 minutes until the rolls are browned on top and the “goodness” layer is bubbling up. 

 

Let the pan stand for about 2-3 minutes out of the oven and then invert it on a plate or a pizza pan, either lined with non-stick foil.  Consume warm or room temp – roll your eyes at the goodness!
