Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 packages active dry yeast, 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons warm milk, about 110 degrees
6 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons salt
4 large eggs
1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, cut in pieces, plus more for the pan
3 1/3 cups pecan halves
2 1/4 cups light corn syrup
1 1/4 cups packed dark-brown sugar
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons sour cream
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine yeast and milk. Let stand until yeast is creamy, about 10 minutes. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Add yeast mixture and eggs, and mix on low speed until completely combined, about 3 minutes.
  • Increase the speed to high and add butter, several pieces at a time. When all the butter has been added, continue mixing dough until it is smooth and shiny, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer dough to a parchment-lined 13-by-18-inch baking pan and use your hands to spread the dough out to fit the pan. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill overnight.
  • Generously butter one 12-cup or two 6-cup, 7-ounce-capacity muffin pans. Chop 2 cups pecans, and break remaining 1 1/3 cups pecans in half lengthwise, keeping the two types separate. Pour 3 tablespoons corn syrup into each muffin cup, and add about 1 tablespoon of brown sugar to each muffin cup. Add about 2 tablespoons of the halved pecans to each muffin cup, and set the filled muffin pan aside.
  • Remove dough from the refrigerator, and let stand at room temperature until slightly softened, about 15 minutes. Roll out dough lengthwise, 1/4 inch thick by 15 inches long by 20 inches wide. Using a spatula, spread sour cream over the surface of dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Dust sour cream with cinnamon, and sprinkle with 2/3 cup brown sugar. Cover brown sugar with chopped pecans, and roll dough up lengthwise to form a roll 18 inches long by 3 inches in diameter.
  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Using a sharp knife, slice dough into 1 1/2-inch-thick slices, and place in the prepared pan or pans, either cut side down, until every cup is filled. Cover buns with parchment paper, and let rise in a warm place until they rise 1/2 inch above cups, 20 to 30 minutes. Transfer sticky buns to the oven, placing a cookie sheet on the rack below to catch any drips. Rotate the pans between the shelves to ensure even baking, until buns are dark golden brown, about 40 minutes.
  • Remove the pans from the oven, and immediately turn buns out onto a second parchment-covered cookie sheet. Replace any pecan halves that fell off buns when turning them out. Place the cookie sheet on a wire rack to cool.

Yield Makes 12 cinnamon buns

Number Of Ingredients 18

For dough
1/4 cup warm water (105°F. to 115°F.)
a 1/4-ounce package active dry yeast (2 1/2 teaspoons)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup milk at room temperature
1 teaspoon salt
2 large egg yolks
1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, cut into pieces and softened
For filling
1/2 cup dried sour cherries, dried cranberries, or raisins
3/4 cup pecans, toasted until golden brown and chopped fine
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
For glaze
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Make dough:
  • In bowl of a standing electric mixer with paddle attachment sprinkle yeast over water with 1/4 teaspoon sugar and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add remaining sugar, flour, milk, salt, and yolks and beat on low speed until combined well. Beat in butter, a few pieces at a time, and beat on medium speed until smooth and elastic, about 5 minutes. (Dough will be soft.) Scrape dough from side of bowl and let rise, covered with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel, in a warm place 1 hour, or until doubled in bulk.
  • Make filling while dough is rising:
  • In a bowl soak dried fruit in warm water to cover 15 minutes. Drain fruit, discarding water, and chop fine. In a small bowl stir together fruit and pecans.
  • In a small bowl stir together well sugar and cinnamon.
  • Grease a 13-by 9-inch baking pan.
  • Punch down dough and on a floured surface roll out into a 16- by 12-inch rectangle. Brush dough with melted butter, leaving an unbuttered 1/2-inch border on long sides, and sprinkle filling evenly over buttered dough. Sprinkle cinnamon sugar evenly over filling.
  • With a long side facing you, roll up dough jelly-roll fashion, brushing off any excess flour, and pinch long edge together firmly to seal. Cut rolled dough crosswise into 12 pieces with a sharp knife and arrange pieces, cut sides down, in pan. Let buns rise, covered loosely, in a warm place 45 to 50 minutes, or until doubled in bulk.
  • While buns are rising, preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Bake buns in middle of oven until golden, about 25 minutes. (Alternatively, buns may be made 1 week ahead: Bake buns in middle of oven until pale golden, about 15 minutes (buns will not be completely baked), and transfer pan to a rack to cool completely. Freeze buns in pan, covered tightly with foil. To serve, thaw buns at room temperature 1 hour and bake in a preheated 350°F. oven until golden, about 10 minutes). Transfer buns to a rack and cool slightly.
  • Make glaze while buns are cooling:
  • In a small bowl whisk together confectioner's sugar and water until smooth. Transfer glaze to a small sealable plastic bag and snip off tip of 1 corner to make a hole for piping glaze.
  • Pipe glace onto cinnamon buns and let stand until set, about 15 minutes.

CINNAMON PECAN BUNS



Cinnamon Pecan Buns image

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h50m

Yield 12 buns

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 1/2 ounces/100g butter, softened
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3 1/2 ounces/100 g soft light brown sugar
3 1/2 ounces/100 g toasted pecans, chopped*
13 ounces/375 g plain flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 ounce/25 g caster sugar
2 ounces/50 g butter, softened
1 egg, beaten
7 fluid ounces/200 ml milk
3 ounces/75 g icing sugar
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons boiling water

Steps:

  • These sweet, buttery and nutty treats are delicious with a cup of tea or coffee. Normally made with a yeast-risen dough, the buns in this recipe are made using a slightly faster method.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F/ 230 degrees C /Gas mark 8, and butter and flour the cake tin.
  • For the filling: Cream the butter and cinnamon together in a large bowl or in an electric food mixer until soft. Add the brown sugar and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy and then stir in the chopped toasted pecans. Set aside (not in the refrigerator).
  • For the dough: Sift the flour, baking powder and cinnamon together into a large bowl.
  • Add the caster sugar, then add the butter and, using your fingertips, rub it in until the mixture resembles bread crumbs. Whisk the beaten egg and milk together in a separate bowl, then make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour in most of the liquid (all but 2 fluid ounces/60 ml). Using one hand with your fingers outstretched like a claw, move your hand around in one direction (clockwise or counter-clockwise) until the dough comes together. Cook's Note: You may need to add the rest of the milk as the dough should be soft and a little sticky.
  • To make the buns: Tip the dough out onto a floured work surface and dust with flour. Using a rolling pin, roll out the dough until it is a 14 by 10- inches/35 by 25 cm rectangle and about 3/4-inch/2 cm thick.
  • Spread the filling all over the rectangle, then with the widest end facing you, roll up the dough away from you so that it resembles a Swiss roll. Cut the 'log' 11 times to make 12 slices, each 1 1/4-inches/3 cm thick. Place the pieces cut-side facing up, with a tiny bit of space between each 'swirl', in the prepared cake tin.
  • Bake in the oven 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 400 degrees F/200 degrees C/Gas mark 6 and cook for a further 25 to 35 minutes or until risen, golden brown and cooked in the centre. They should have joined together to make a lovely cluster of buns.
  • Allow the buns to stand in the tin for 2 to 3 minutes before carefully turning out and cooling on a wire rack. When cool, transfer to a serving plate or cake stand.
  • For the icing: Sift the icing sugar (confectioners') into a bowl, add 1 tablespoon boiling water and mix well, adding another 1/2 to 1 tablespoon boiling water, if necessary, until the icing is soft, but not too runny. Drizzle the icing over the buns.
  • To serve: Break each bun off with your hand or cut into slices.

4 tablespoons water
½ (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
4 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 ¼ teaspoons bread machine yeast
½ cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 ½ cups confectioners' sugar
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • In a bread machine pan, place the milk, beaten egg, melted butter, water, vanilla pudding mix, bread flour, sugar, salt and yeast in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select the Dough cycle.

Tips:

  • Use fresh sour cherries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries. Just be sure to thaw and drain them before using.
  • If you don't have a rolling pin, you can use a wine bottle or a glass jar to roll out the dough.
  • Be careful not to overproof the dough. If the dough rises too much, the buns will be too light and airy and will not have a good texture.
  • Bake the buns until they are golden brown and the cream cheese frosting is set. If the buns are not baked long enough, they will be doughy and the frosting will be runny.

Conclusion:

Sour cherry pecan cinnamon 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. The combination of sour cherries, pecans, and cinnamon is irresistible, and the cream cheese frosting adds a touch of sweetness and richness. If you are looking for a unique and flavorful cinnamon bun recipe, be sure to try this one.
