“Yum! What can be better than a hot sticky bun for breakfast or a late night snack? Pop one into the microwave for a few seconds to make them taste fresh from the oven.”

INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

* 2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
* 1/2 cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
* 1 1/4 cups buttermilk, room temperature
* 2 eggs
* 5 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, divided
* 1/4 cup butter, softened
* 1/4 cup white sugar
* 2 teaspoons baking powder
* 2 teaspoons salt

* 2 tablespoons butter, softened
* 1/2 cup white sugar
* 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

* 1/2 cup butter, melted
* 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
* 1/3 cup raisins
* 2/3 cup chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Combine the yeast mixture with the buttermilk, eggs, 2 1/2 cups flour, 1/4 cup softened butter, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Dough should remain soft and slightly sticky. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
3. Divide dough in half and roll each half into a 12×7 inch rectangle. Spread each half with 1 tablespoon softened butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Roll up halves, beginning at wide side. Seal well by pinching the seams. Cut each roll into 12 slices.
4. Coat two 9 inch round cake pans each with 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons raisins and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Place 12 dough slices in each pan, leaving a small space between slices. Cover and let rise until doubled.
5. Bake in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Invert pans onto plates and serve.
