Pecan Sticky Buns with Rhodes Cinnamon Rolls
Servings: 12 Servings
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¾ cup light brown sugar packed
- ¼ cup dark corn syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup pecans coarsely chopped
- 1 package Rhodes Cinnamon Rolls thawed, per package directions
Instructions
- Spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with nonstick spray and set it aside.
- Add the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt to a small saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring often, until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.½ cup unsalted butter, ¾ cup light brown sugar, ¼ cup dark corn syrup, ¼ teaspoon salt
- Pour the hot topping into the prepared pan and spread it into an even layer. Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the top.1 cup pecans
- Arrange the thawed cinnamon rolls in an even layer on top of the pecan mixture.1 package Rhodes Cinnamon Rolls
- Lightly spray a piece of plastic wrap with nonstick spray, then cover the pan (sprayed side down). Let the rolls rise until they’ve noticeably expanded in size.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Loosely cover the pan with foil during the last 10 minutes to prevent over-browning.
- Remove the pan from the oven and invert immediately. Carefully flip the pan onto a large serving tray or rimmed baking sheet while everything is still hot. Lift the pan off slowly so the topping releases cleanly.
It can take anywhere from 2-5 hours for the rolls to get puffy (check the package for info). If your house is really warm, they'll rise faster. They need to be noticeably larger not doubled in size since they'll continue to rise in the oven.
