Easy Sticky Buns
Easy Sticky Buns are one of my favorite ways to whip up breakfast or a mid-day snack. You use canned biscuits that you dress up and transform into sticky buns in under 20 minutes.
Servings: 8 buns
Ingredients
Buns
- 1 (16.3 ounce) can Pillsbury Grands Flaky Layer Original Biscuits
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Topping
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 chopped pecans
Instructions
Buns
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9 or 10-inch cake pan or pie plate with nonstick baking spray.
- Add 3 tablespoons unsalted butter that's melted in a small shallow dish.
- In a separate shallow dish, add in the 2/3 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Stir to combine.
- Separate the biscuits. Coat the first 7 biscuits into the melted butter.
- Dip the coated biscuit in the cinnamon and sugar until covered.
- Place the biscuits in the prepared pan. Press the biscuits close together. It's okay if they are squished.
- Cut the remaing biscuit into 8 equal pieces like you would with a pizza.
- Dip each piece in the butter and then coat with the cinnamon sugar.
- Tuck the pieces into the empty spaces between the biscuits.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes, until done. Immediately after the buns are done baking, begin working on the topping.
Topping
- Add the 1/3 cup light brown sugar, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, and 1/2 chopped pecans in a medium saucepan. Place over medium heat and let the butter melt while stirring.
- Once a sauce forms, remove from the heat and pour it all over the top of the hot biscuits. If the pecans are clumped up, spread them out with a knife or spatula.
- Best served the same day and warm.
Notes
Storage: Store covered or in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
