How to Make Made from Scratch Caramel Pecan Sticky Rolls
Ingredients:
For the dough:
- 1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F)
- 2 eggs, room temperature
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 4 1/2 cups bread flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
For the filling:
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- 1/3 cup butter, softened
For the caramel topping:
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/4 cup corn syrup
- 1 cup chopped pecans
Directions:
- In a bread machine, add the milk, eggs, melted butter, flour, salt, sugar, and yeast in the order suggested by your machine. Run the dough cycle.
- While the dough is working, prepare the caramel topping. In a small saucepan, melt the butter, then stir in brown sugar and corn syrup. Cook until smooth. Pour the caramel into a greased 9×13 inch pan. Sprinkle chopped pecans evenly over the caramel.
- Once the dough is done, roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle (about 16×21 inches).
- Spread the softened butter over the dough. Mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together, and sprinkle it all over the buttered dough.
- Roll up the dough tightly starting from the long edge. Cut into 12 equal rolls and place them cut-side down into the pan over the caramel pecan mixture.
- Cover the pan and let the rolls rise until they double in size (about 30–40 minutes).
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
- Let the rolls sit in the pan for a few minutes, then carefully turn them out onto a serving tray so the caramel and pecans are on top.
