Banana Sticky Buns Recipes

Steps:

• In a large, microwave-proof bowl, combine the milk and melted butter. Microwave for 40 seconds, until the milk mixture reaches 110˚F (45˚C). Add the yeast, then let sit for 10 minutes.
• Add the granulated sugar, salt, mashed bananas and stir.
• Add 3½ cups (435 g) of flour, ½ cup (60 g) at a time, stirring between each addition.
• Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for 3 minutes, adding more flour ¼ cup (30 g) at a time if the dough is sticking to your hands or the surface. Form the dough into a ball.
• Add the oil to clean large bowl and place the dough in the bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rise for in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or overnight, until doubled in size.
• Once the dough has risen, roll it out to a ¼-inch-thick (6-mm) rectangle about 18x12 inches (20x30 cm).
• Make the filling by mixing the melted butter, granulated sugar, and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
• Spread the filling evenly over the dough. Roll up the dough and slice into 15 1½-inch (4-cm) thick slices (discard the ends).
• Make the caramel sauce: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the butter, brown sugar, salt, vanilla, and honey. Keep stirring to prevent the sugar from sticking to the pan. Bring to a gentle boil, then remove the pan from the heat.
• Pour the caramel sauce into a 9x12-inch (23x30-cm) baking dish and sprinkle the walnuts on top of sauce. Arrange the rolls in the dish so there are 3 rows of 5 rolls.
• Cover with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise for 15 minutes, in a warm place.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Remove the plastic wrap and bake the cinnamon rolls for 40 minutes, or until light golden brown.
• Let cool for 20 minutes, then invert the rolls onto a serving platter. Leftover cinnamon rolls can be stored up to 5 days in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave or oven.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• 1. Place all of the dough ingredients in the bread maker pan in order given.
• 2. Press DOUGH CYCLE. This usually takes 1 1/2 hours.
• 3. When the machine beeps to add ingredients, add in your raisins. Check your manual for adding extra ingredients.
• 4. Make the topping on the stove in a medium saucepan. Over medium heat on stove, combine the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup or maple syrup.
• 5. Stir constantly until all ingredients are combined. Bring to a boil. Turn off heat.
• 6. Spray a 9x13 baking pan with cooking spray.
• 7. Pour the hot topping into the pan taking care not to burn yourself as this is very hot.
• 8. Sprinkle the nuts over the topping evenly.
• 9. Mix the brown sugar for the filling with cinnamon and set aside.
• 10. Melt the butter for filling in a separate cup and set aside. You will need a pastry brush for the butter or can use your fingers if a brush isn't available. Make sure the butter has cooled if using fingers.
• 11. Prepare a baking mat with a generous portion of flour.
• 12. Turn your prepared dough from bread maker onto the mat.
• 13. Sprinkle top of dough and rolling pin with flour.
• 14. Roll out into a rectangle; about 12 x 18 inches.
• 15. Brush surface of the rectangle with melted butter.
• 16. Sprinkle entire surface with the cinnamon brown sugar.
• 17. With the wide side of the dough, start rolling it up carefully.
• 18. Continue until the dough is rolled into a log.
• 19. With a sharp serrated knife, cut the dough into 1" rounds.
• 20. Place each round onto the caramel topping in baking pan. Leave a little space between each roll.
• 21. When all rolls are in the pan, cover the rolls with a clean damp cloth.
• 22. Place in a warm area for 30 minutes or until the dough has risen nicely. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• 23. Bake the rolls for 20 minutes until lightly brown and firm to touch.
• 24. Remove from oven and carefully turn the pan of rolls over onto a large plate for cooling.
• 25. The nuts will be facing upward. They are very hot so do this carefully. Store any leftovers in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Combine warm water and milk in a mixing bowl and sprinkle yeast over. Let sit until frothy, about 10 minutes.
• Add sugar, egg, and melted butter for dough to the yeast mixture. Mix with a whisk before adding 75% of the flour with the salt. Mix, adding more flour, until a very soft and sticky dough is formed. Let knead in the mixer for about 5 minutes. Cover and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• While dough is rising, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Generously butter a 9x13-inch metal baking pan.
• Combine brown sugar, white sugar, salt, melted butter, and water for topping in a bowl. Mix thoroughly until smooth. Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly to cover the bottom. Scatter pecans evenly over the top. Set aside until needed.
• Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl for filling; mix until thoroughly combined. Set aside until needed.
• Transfer dough onto a lightly floured surface. Lightly flour your hands and press and stretch the dough to form a 18x15-inch rectangle. Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dough to the edges, leaving a 2-inch border along the edges. Lightly press the sugar mixture into the dough with your hands.
• Roll the dough into a cylinder with lightly floured hands starting with the edge closest to you; try not to roll too tightly. Finish shaping the cylinder as uniformly as possible, seam-side down. Lightly score the roll with the edge of a knife to indicate 12 equal portions.
• Slide a piece of string or floss under the dough, lining it up at the first knife mark. Cross the ends of the string over the top and pull in opposite directions to cut through the dough. Continue with remaining dough.
• Transfer buns into the pan with topping, making 3 rows of 4 buns. If one side of a bun has more dough than another, place with the doughier side up in the pan. Tent the pan loosely with foil and let rise until buns have almost doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour. Save foil in case you need it towards the end of baking time.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a bun reaches 200 degrees F (93 degrees C), about 35 minutes. If the tops are getting too browned, loosely tent the pan with foil for the last 5 to 10 minutes of baking time.
• Remove from the oven onto a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes. Turn pan over carefully onto a serving platter. Use a spoon to transfer any sticky topping that has remained in the pan. Let cool and serve warm or at room temperature.
