Delightful sticky buns featuring a perfect blend of cinnamon, maple syrup, and toasted walnuts, bringing warmth and sweetness to any breakfast table.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup milk, warmed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
- Whisk in melted butter, brown sugar, and eggs. Gradually add flour and cinnamon until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl; cover and let it rise for 1 hour until doubled in size.
- Mix together brown sugar, cinnamon, and chopped walnuts in a small bowl for the filling.
- Punch down the risen dough; roll it out into a rectangle. Spread softened butter on the dough and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top.
- Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch pieces. Place in a greased baking pan.
- Cover the pan with a towel; let the buns rise for another 30 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, heat maple syrup and butter until melted, and pour it over the buns.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the buns for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- Let them cool slightly before serving, then invert the pan onto a serving platter.
Notes
Save some syrup for drizzling before serving for extra sweetness.
