Pecan Sticky Buns

Directions

Make the dough:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients.

3. Whisk the wet into the dry, and stir just until combined. Wrap your dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.

Make the caramel and filling:

1. In a medium-sized saucepan, whisk together the coconut sugar and water. Set the burner to medium heat.

2. Once the mixture starts to bubble, turn the heat up to medium-high.

3. Let it boil for approximately five minutes, then remove from heat.

4. Immediately whisk in the coconut cream, butter, vanilla, and sea salt.

5. Let the caramel cool for 10 minutes while you make the filling and assemble the rolls.

6. In a small bowl, whisk together all the filling ingredients until combined.

Assemble and bake:

1. Preheat your oven to 350ºF.

2. Place the refrigerated dough between two pieces of parchment paper, and roll into a 10x12-inch rectangle. Remove the top piece of parchment.

3. Spread the filling evenly onto the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the filling so it doesn’t spill out.

4. Place the rectangle of dough so the short side is facing you, then carefully roll it tightly towards you. It helps to gently peel the parchment away from you as you roll.

5. Cut the log into 9 even slices.

6. Spray an 8x8 inch baking dish with Primal Kitchen Avocado Oil Spray.

7. Evenly drizzle 1/4 cup of the caramel onto the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle on the 1/2 cup chopped pecans.

8. Place your rolls into the pan, on top of the caramel-pecan mixture. Bake at 350°F for approximately 25 minutes, or until the edges begin turning golden brown.

9. Cool for five minutes. Then, gently remove the buns from the pan.

10. Drizzle on remaining caramel, and extra pecans, if desired. Serve warm, and refrigerate any leftovers for later.
