10. Before serving, drizzle the glaze on top.

Maple Pecan Sticky Buns

Ingredients
• 1 cup (240ml) whole milk, warmed to about 100°F (38°C)
• 2/3 cup (135g) granulated sugar, divided
• 1 and 1/2 Tablespoons (14g) active dry or instant yeast (2 standard size packets)
• 1/2 cup (8 Tbsp; 113g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature and cut into 4 pieces
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 4 and 1/2 cups (563g) all-purpose flour or bread flour (spooned & leveled), plus more as needed
• 2 teaspoons canola, vegetable, or olive oil for bowl (or use nonstick spray)
• 2 cups (250g) chopped pecans
• 1/2 cup (8 Tbsp; 113g) unsalted butter
• 2/3 cup (135g) packed light or dark brown sugar
• 1/4 cup (60ml) whole milk
• 1/4 cup (60ml) pure maple syrup
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup (4 Tbsp; 56g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• 1/2 cup (100g) packed light or dark brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Directions
1. Whisk the warm milk, 2 Tablespoons sugar, and the yeast together in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a dough hook or paddle attachment. Cover and allow mixture to sit for about 5 minutes or until foamy on top.
2. On medium speed, beat in the remaining sugar (1/2 cup, or 100g) and the softened butter until slightly broken up. Add the eggs and salt and beat on medium speed until combined.
3. Turn the mixer down to low speed and, with it running, add 1 cup of flour at a time, making sure it’s fully incorporated before adding the next. After 4 cups have been added, add the last 1/2 cup and beat until the dough comes together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl, about 3 minutes. If dough is not pulling away, add more flour 1 Tablespoon at a time until kneadable.
4. Keep the dough in the mixer and beat for an additional 5 minutes, or knead by hand on a lightly floured surface for 5 minutes until soft, smooth, and elastic.
5. Lightly grease a large bowl with oil or nonstick spray. Place the dough in the bowl, turning to coat all sides. Cover and allow to rise in a warm place for 2 hours or until doubled in size.
6. Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan. Spread chopped pecans evenly in the pan.
7. Combine the rest of the topping ingredients (1/2 cup butter, 2/3 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1/4 teaspoon salt) in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until butter melts, then simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and pour over pecans.
8. Punch down the dough and roll it out on a lightly floured surface into a 12×18-inch rectangle.
9. Spread 1/4 cup softened butter over the dough. Mix 1/2 cup brown sugar and 2 teaspoons cinnamon and sprinkle evenly over the butter.
10. Roll the dough tightly into an 18-inch log. Cut into 12 even rolls about 1.5 inches wide each. Arrange rolls in the prepared pan on top of the pecan topping.
11. Cover the rolls and allow to rise until puffy, about 30–45 minutes.
12. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Bake for 25–28 minutes or until golden brown. Tent with foil halfway through baking to prevent over-browning.
13. Remove from oven and cool for 5 minutes. Invert the pan onto a serving platter to release the sticky topping. Serve warm.

Directions

2. In a bowl, combine the snickerdoodle cookie mix with the softened butter and egg, setting aside the cinnamon sugar packet. Mix until well combined and crumbly, ignoring the preparation instructions on the cookie mix package.
3. Spread the apple pie filling evenly in the prepared dish. Sprinkle the ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and kosher salt over the apple filling and stir gently to mix.
4. Scatter 2 to 4 tablespoons (18–36 g) of toffee bits over the apple filling.
5. Use clean hands to sprinkle the cookie mixture evenly over the apples, covering the filling without pressing it down to keep the topping light and crumbly. Some cookie mixture may remain.
6. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon sugar packet over the topping, saving the rest for serving.
7. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the crust comes out clean.
