CRANBERRY GINGER STICKY BUNS
When I was kid, I was desperate to bake with yeast. I wanted to enjoy the pillow-soft texture that you can only get from warm-from-the-oven, freshly baked, homemade treats. But I could never make my breads rise. Thankfully, as an adult, I've learned how to keep my yeast happy. I always store it in the freezer. That keeps it fresh for longer. And if there is any doubt, I proof it before adding it to the dough. And, if your house is chilly and your dough refuses to rise, you can wake up sleepy yeast in the oven. Set a baking pan of boiling water in the bottom of the oven. Add the baking pan of shaped rolls to the top rack. Keep the oven off and the door closed and the warm steam will help the buns rise.

Steps:
- For the dough: Lightly grease a large bowl and set aside.
- In a small pot, bring the milk just to a boil over medium heat. Watch closely to ensure that the milk doesn't boil over. Add it to a small bowl and let it cool to 105 to 110 degrees F. (It should be warm to the touch but not too hot.) Add the whole egg and yolks and stir to combine.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour, cranberries, granulated sugar, yeast and salt. Add the warm milk mixture and mix just until combined.
- Switch to the dough hook and knead the dough on low speed until smooth and elastic, about 6 minutes. Add the butter a piece at a time until completely incorporated. Form the dough into a ball, put it in the prepared bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Leave it in a warm, draft-free spot until it has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- For the topping: Meanwhile, butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Add 3 tablespoons water to a small saucepan, then add the granulated sugar to the center of the pan. Cook the sugar mixture over medium-high heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until it is a deep amber, 6 to 8 minutes. Whisk in the butter, cream and salt until smooth (be careful, it will sputter). Pour the caramel into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the nuts evenly over the top. Set aside.
- For the filling: Mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside.
- When the dough has doubled, tip it out onto a very lightly floured work surface. Knead it once or twice to expel the air and then roll it into a 16-by-12-inch rectangle.
- Spread the butter evenly over the surface and sprinkle with the reserved filling and the ginger. Tightly roll up the dough and pinch the top seam closed. With a serrated knife, cut the roll crosswise into 12 equal pieces. Set them in the dish with the topping, spirals facing upward. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let them rest until the dough has almost doubled again, about 1 hour. They should look pillowy and all of the rolls will be touching.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Uncover the rolls, set a piece of aluminum foil on a lower oven rack to catch any caramel that may drip and bake until deep golden brown and puffed, 25 to 30 minutes. Give the center roll a wiggle--if it's set in place, the buns are ready to come out. If the middle of that center roll feels soft, give them another few minutes. Let cool on a rack for 5 minutes, then carefully cut around the edge with a paring knife and invert the rolls onto a serving plate. Let cool slightly before eating.

- Gradually add in honey, salt, and flour to the bowl with the almond milk mixture; mix until fully combined. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and set dough in a warm place to rise for 1 hour.

- Roll dough out into a rectangular shape between 2 sheets of waxed paper or parchment paper. Gently peel back the top sheet and spread filling onto dough. Start at one end, using the paper to help, roll dough into a tight log. Place log seam-side down on a cutting board and use a sharp serrated knife to cut into 1 1/2-inch slices. Place buns on top of glaze in the baking dish.
- Cover and allow buns to rise for a second time, about 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Tips:
- Use almond flour and coconut flour for a grain-free option: Almond flour and coconut flour are great alternatives to wheat flour, providing a grain-free option for those with gluten sensitivities or those following a paleo diet.
- Use fresh or frozen cranberries: Fresh cranberries are ideal for this recipe, but frozen cranberries can also be used. If using frozen cranberries, thaw them before using.
- Make sure the butter is cold: Cold butter is essential for creating flaky layers in the sticky buns. If the butter is too soft, it will make the dough difficult to handle and the sticky buns will not be as flaky.
- Don't overproof the dough: Overproofing the dough will make the sticky buns too dense. Let the dough rise until it has doubled in size, but not more.
- Brush the sticky buns with butter before baking: This will help to create a golden brown crust.
- Serve the sticky buns warm: Sticky buns are best served warm, when the filling is gooey and the glaze is still soft.
Conclusion:
These grain-free cranberry sticky buns are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are looking for a special breakfast, brunch, or dessert, these sticky buns are sure to be a hit.
