Time 45m

Yield 72 buns

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter
2 cups finely chopped pecans
1 cup light corn syrup
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 pack store-bought bread dough (3 loaves per pack)
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • For the topping: In a pan, melt the butter and add the pecans, corn syrup and vanilla. Let the mixture bubble up for a minute, then remove from the heat. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the mixture into each cup of three 24-hole mini-muffin tins.
  • For the rolls: Roll out each piece of dough into a 6-by-24-inch rectangle (should roll out very thin!). Pour a third of the melted butter on each piece, then sprinkle a third of the sugar and a third of the cinnamon evenly over each surface.
  • Starting at the far end of one piece, roll the dough into a long log, rolling toward you. You'll end up with a 24-inch log. With a sharp knife, cut into very thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining pieces of dough.
  • Lay the sliced rolls into the muffin tins on top of the pecan mixture, tucking the tails under and patting them firmly on top of the topping. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 13 minutes.
  • Turn out the rolls from the pans immediately. Invert carefully, so that the rolls turn out and the pecans stay stuck to the bottoms (which are now the tops!). If a little of the pecans stick in the tins, just dig them out with a spoon and reapply them to the rolls.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
4 tablespoons corn syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
1 (8 oz) can refrigerated crescent rolls
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake pecans and butter in a lightly greased 8-inch round cake pan for 2 minutes. Swirl pan to combine, and bake 2 more minutes. Remove from oven and stir in brown sugar, corn syrup and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; spread mixture over bottom of pan. Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into 4 rectangles, pressing perforations to seal. Stir together white sugar and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon; sprinkle over rectangles. Roll up each rectangle tightly, starting at 1 long side; press edges to seal. Cut each log into 5 slices; place slices, cut sides down, in prepared pan. (Space slices equally in pan; they will not touch.) Bake for 14 to 16 minutes or until center rolls are golden brown and done. Remove from oven and immediately invert pan onto a serving plate. Spoon any topping in pan over rolls. Eat while warm!
