OTHER WORLDLY STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• Dough: In a small bowl mix 1/2 cup warm water, yeast, and pinch of sugar. Allow it to stand until foamy, about 8 minutes. Using a standing mixer with a paddle attachment or an electric mixer, mix the remaining sugar, butter, milk powder, and salt until well blended. Beat in the eggs, 1 at a time. Mix in the remaining 1 cup of warm water, and the yeast mixture, then 3 cups flour, 1 cup at a time. Using a rubber spatula, mix in another 1 cup of flour, scraping down the sides of the bowl frequently (dough will be soft and sticky). Sprinkle 1/4 cup of flour onto a work surface and knead the dough until smooth and elastic, adding more flour if sticky, about 8 minutes.
• Butter a large bowl, add the dough, and turn to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm area until doubled, about 2 1/2 hours.
• Glaze: Butter 2 (10-inch) round cake pans with 2-inch high sides. Beat the brown sugar, 1/2 cup butter, honey, corn syrup, and water in a medium bowl to blend. Spread half of the glaze in the bottom of each prepared pan. Equally divide the pecans into each pan.
• Punch the dough down and divide it in half. Roll each piece of dough out on a floured work surface to a 12 by 10-inch rectangle. Brush any excess flour off the dough. In a small bowl mix the sugar, and cinnamon. Brush the melted butter over the dough rectangles and sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar, dividing equally. Starting at 1 long side, tightly roll up each rectangle into a log. Cut each log into 12 rounds. Arrange the 12 rounds, cut side down, in each prepared pan, spacing evenly. Cover with plastic wrap. At this point the buns can be made 1 day ahead and refrigerated. Let the buns rise in a warm area until almost doubled, about 1 hour (or 1 hour 25 minutes if refrigerated).
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Bake the buns until deep golden brown, about 30 minutes. Run a small knife around the pan sides to loosen the sticky buns. Turn the hot buns out onto a platter. Cool about 30 minutes and then drizzle with royal icing.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the egg whites with the lemon juice until they are combined. Add the sifted confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed until smooth. The icing needs to be used immediately or transferred to an airtight container. Royal icing hardens when it is exposed to air.
• *RAW EGG WARNING:
• Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.

SWIRLY STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a pot set over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add 3/4 cup of the brown sugar, the vanilla and 1/4 cup water, and cook until the sugar dissolves. Spread 3 tablespoons of the sugar mixture on the bottom of a 9-inch round baking dish, and sprinkle the 1/2 cup whole pecans over the sugar mixture.
• Dust a clean surface with flour, and roll out the dough to a 10-by-14-inch rectangle. Cover the dough with the remaining 1/2 cup of the brown sugar, the 1/2 cup chopped pecans and the remaining sugar mixture. Starting at one of the long ends, gently roll the dough into a log. Gently pinch the seam with your fingers to seal, and then cut the log into 12 equal pieces. Place the dough in the baking dish and bake until golden brown, 30 minutes.
• Rest the sticky buns for 5 minutes. Place a flat serving platter over the baking dish and flip to remove the buns. Serve warm.

HOMEMADE STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• Lightly grease 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish and large bowl with shortening or cooking spray.
• Place yeast in ungreased large bowl. Add warm water; mix well until dissolved. Stir in all remaining Dough ingredients except flour until well mixed. Add 3 cups of the flour; stir until a soft dough forms.
• On lightly floured work surface, knead dough 10 to 12 minutes, adding no more than 1/2 cup additional flour until dough is a good consistency and not too sticky. Dough should be slightly sticky and does not break when stretched. If it breaks, continue kneading.
• Place dough in greased large bowl; cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm place 2 to 3 hours or until doubled in size.
• Punch down dough; place on lightly floured work surface. Cover dough with plastic wrap again; let rest 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, mix all Topping ingredients except pecans. Heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Pour into baking dish. Sprinkle with pecans.
• After dough has rested, roll out dough with rolling pin into 18x12-inch rectangle. Brush dough with 1/4 cup softened butter, leaving 1-inch strip of dough along one long side. In small bowl, mix 2/3 cup brown sugar and the cinnamon. Sprinkle over buttered dough.
• Staring with topped long side of dough, carefully and tightly roll dough into very long roll. Cut roll evenly into 15 slices. Place slices in 5 rows by 3 rows in baking dish over Topping. Let rise in warm place 30 to 60 minutes or until doubled in size.
• After rolls have doubled in size, heat oven to 350°F. Bake rolls 25 to 30 minutes or until deep golden brown. Immediately invert rolls onto serving platter, being extremely careful of hot sticky topping. Serve warm.

STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Combine the yeast mixture with the buttermilk, eggs, 2 1/2 cups flour, 1/4 cup softened butter, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Dough should remain soft and slightly sticky. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Divide dough in half and roll each half into a 12x7 inch rectangle. Spread each half with 1 tablespoon softened butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Roll up halves, beginning at wide side. Seal well by pinching the seams. Cut each roll into 12 slices.
• Coat two 9 inch round cake pans each with 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons raisins and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Place 12 dough slices in each pan, leaving a small space between slices. Cover and let rise until doubled.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Invert pans onto plates and serve.
