Maple Nut Sticky Buns Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Add shortening, sugar, egg, salt and 5 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 24 hours. , Punch dough down. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes, adding more flour if needed. Divide into thirds. Roll each portion into a 16x10-in. rectangle. , On each rectangle, spread 2 tablespoons butter; sprinkle each with 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon and 1/4 cup walnuts. Pour syrup into three greased 9-in. round baking pans. Sprinkle with additional brown sugar. , Tightly roll up each rectangle, jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Slice each roll into 10 pieces; place over syrup. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. , Preheat oven to 350°. Bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Cool in pans 5 minutes; invert onto serving plates.

Steps:

• Position racks in the lower and upper thirds of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Line another baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• For the biscuit dough: Whisk the 5 cups flour with the baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter cubes and toss until each cube is fully coated in the flour. Using your hands or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the flour until it's about the size of peas.
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Stir until just incorporated; do not overmix. Use a bench scraper or spatula to divide the dough in half, then refrigerate it while you prepare the topping.
• For the topping and filling: Use 1 tablespoon of the butter to generously grease a 9-by-9-inch baking pan. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then combine it with the maple syrup in a liquid measuring cup. Gently pour this mixture into the prepared baking pan. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the bottom of the pan, then sprinkle the pecans over the brown sugar in an even layer. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured surface, pat out one half of the biscuit dough into a 9-inch square; brush evenly with the cream. In a small bowl, stir together the granulated sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle evenly over the biscuit. Carefully transfer the biscuit to the baking pan and gently press it as needed to fill the pan.
• On a lightly floured surface, pat out the remaining biscuit dough into another 9-inch square and place it on top of the biscuit in the baking pan, pressing firmly to fill the pan. Place the baking pan on the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake on the lower oven rack until a tester inserted in the center of the biscuit comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
• While the biscuits bake, prepare the candied bacon: Place the bacon strips on the foil-lined baking sheet. In a small bowl, stir to combine the brown sugar and maple syrup. Drizzle a spoonful along the center of each bacon slice, then use your fingers to spread it evenly. Season generously with black pepper.
• Bake the bacon on the upper rack of the oven until crisp and browned, 13 to 17 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and immediately transfer the bacon to a cutting board and let cool. Coarsely chop the bacon.
• Let the sticky buns cool in the pan for 3 to 4 minutes before turning them out onto a serving platter. Spoon any topping still in the pan over the biscuits and sprinkle the bacon evenly over the top. Cut into 9 equal pieces and serve the biscuits warm.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl, combine potatoes, egg, shortening, sugar, salt, yeast mixture and 1 cup flour; beat on medium speed until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough., Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and refrigerate overnight., Pour syrup into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish; sprinkle with walnuts. In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Punch down dough; turn onto a lightly floured surface. Roll into a 24x8-in. rectangle. Spread with butter to within 1/2 in. of edges; sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut into 24 slices., Place in prepared baking dish, cut side down. Cover with a kitchen towel; let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°., Bake 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes before inverting buns onto a platter.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and add maple syrup. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes until it builds a froth. When frothy, add oil, salt and 2 cups flour. Beat well. Add dry milk and wheat germ and mix, then add 2 to 3 more cups flour a little at a time. Knead dough for about 10 minutes. Let dough rise until it doubles in size and punch down.
• In each pan, melt about 1 tablespoon butter. Add 3/4 cup grade A (medium) or grade B (dark) maple syrup and 1 cup chopped walnuts. Let the dough rise again until doubled in size. Bake until golden, about 30 minutes.
• Serve warm and enjoy!
• Roll dough to about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thickness and spread butter and sprinkle maple sugar onto dough. Roll dough up like a jelly roll. Slice rolls about 1 inch thick and arrange into 2 (8-inch) round pan that have been prepared as follows:.

Steps:

• Make the dough: Combine the yeast, buttermilk and 1 tablespoon sugar, and let sit until foamy, about 5 minutes.
• To the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add the flour, salt and remaining 1 tablespoon sugar. Stir to combine, then add the butter and toss to coat in the flour. Add the eggs and buttermilk mixture, then mix on low to combine, about 1 or 2 minutes.
• Increase speed to medium, and mix the dough until it is soft, billowy and clearing the sides of the bowl, but still sticking to the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes. If the dough seems very, very soft and still sticks to the sides of the bowl, add more flour, a tablespoon at a time (up to about 4 tablespoons).
• Lightly grease a separate large bowl with butter and transfer the dough to it. Turn the dough to coat with butter, then cover the bowl with a kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm spot until almost doubled in size, about 1 hour, then refrigerate the dough for 1 hour more. (Alternately, refrigerate the dough for up to 24 hours after the first rise, then proceed with the recipe as written.)
• When you are ready to bake the rolls, make the topping: In a medium saucepan (to prevent boiling over), combine the maple syrup, brown sugar, butter and salt. Bring to a boil over medium and cook for 1 minute. The mixture will thicken slightly. Pour the mixture into a metal 9-by-13-inch baking pan and tilt the pan to evenly cover the bottom with the syrup. Sprinkle the pecans evenly over the top, and set aside.
• Make the filling: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, cardamom and salt.
• Assemble the rolls: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat or roll it into a 12-by-16-inch rectangle that's 1/4-inch thick. Gently spread the softened butter over the dough, leaving about 1 inch of unbuttered dough on the long edge furthest from you. Sprinkle the sugar mixture evenly over the top of the butter. From the long end closest to you, roll the dough into a tight log. With the seam side down, use a serrated knife or length of floss to cut the log into 12 even pieces.
• Place the rolls spiral side up into the prepared pan, cover and let rise until puffy but not quite doubled in size, about 45 minutes. (This may take a little longer if you refrigerated the dough for longer than 1 hour after the first rise.) If you'd like to bake them later, you can refrigerate the rolls in the pan before this second rise for up to 24 hours. Let the rolls rise at room temperature until almost doubled in size before baking. They will take longer to rise after chilling, depending on the ambient temperature.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees and bake rolls for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the caramel is bubbling a bit around the edges. Carefully run an offset spatula or thin knife around the edges of the pan. Let the rolls cool in the pan on a rack for about 5 minutes, then flip them out onto a serving tray or sheet pan. Let cool for a minute or two, then enjoy warm.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F.
• Sprinkle nuts onto bottom of 12-cup fluted pan or 10-inch tube pan sprayed with cooking spray. Melt 2 Tbsp. butter in small microwaveable bowl. Stir in syrup; drizzle over nuts in pan.
• Melt remaining butter. Mix sugar and cinnamon in shallow dish. Separate dough into 20 biscuits; flatten each to 1/4-inch thickness. Roll cream cheese cubes in cinnamon sugar until evenly coated; place 1 on center of each biscuit. Gather up sides of dough to enclose filling; press edges together to seal. Roll each into ball; dip top in remaining butter, then in remaining cinnamon sugar. Arrange half the balls, cinnamon sugar-sides up, in prepared pan. Repeat with remaining balls to form second layer. Top with any remaining butter and cinnamon sugar.
• Bake 30 min. or until golden brown. Cool buns in pan 1 min.; invert onto serving plate. Remove pan. Top buns with any remaining nuts in pan; cool slightly.

Steps:

• Grease a 13x9 baking pan and spread pecans and maple syrup evenly over the bottom.
• Combine 2 cups flour, sugar, yeast and salt in large bowl. Stir in water, 2 Tbsp butter and egg. Beat until smooth; gradually stir in remaining flour until soft dough forms. Place in greased bowl and cover with greased plastic wrap to prevent sticking; let rise until doubled, about 30 minute.
• On lightly floured surface, roll dough to 15x12 rectangle. Spread with remaining butter. Mix brown sugar with cinnamon; sprinkle over surface. Starting with a short side, roll up tightly.
• Cut into 12 slices; place cut side down in prepared pan. Cover with greased plastic wrap; place on wire rack set over stove while oven preheats to 375*F. Let rise until buns double, 30-45 minutes. Uncover buns and bake until golden brown, 25-30 minutes. Cool for 1 minute. Loosen edges; invert onto serving plate, serve warm.
• For cinnamon rolls, omit syrup and pecans; glaze with a mixture of 1 1/2 c powdered sugar, 2-3 Tbsp milk and 1 tsp vanilla.
