DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, add flour, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. 
  3. Measure milk into a glass measuring cup and microwave for 40 seconds. Next, melt the butter in a glass bowl for 30 seconds. 
  4. Add milk, yeast and honey to the bowl of melted butter. Mix to dissolve yeast and let stand for 5 minutes. 
  5. Add 2 beaten eggs to the bowl and mix until combined. 
  6. Add the flour mixture to the bowl and mix. If the mixture looks too wet after the flour is all combined, add a tablespoon more flour. Continue until the dough is pulling away from the sides of the mixing bowl. 
  7. Wrap completely and let rise for 2 hours or until it doubles in size. 
  8. Once it has doubled, transfer it to a lightly floured surface and roll it into a large rectangle about 1 cm thick.  
  9. Spread filling over the whole layer before rolling it into a tight log. 
  10. Cut your log into 12 pieces by cutting it in half, half again, and then each quadrant into 3 pieces.  
  11. Divide and place the buns inside 2, 9×12 baking dishes lined with parchment paper. Let rise for 30 min or until buns have doubled in size. Stagger the buns in the pan so they have room to rise. 
  12. Place in the oven at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes, rotating them halfway through.  
  13. Once they have finished and cooled. Make the pecan topping by combining all of the topping ingredients in a small saucepan and cooking until it boils. 
  14. Once finished, spoon over the cooled cinnamon buns.
