Apple-Pecan Sticky Buns

" MMMMM....I put it in my mouth and I like it." Caeden Connell

Ingredients

2 tart apples, such as granny smith-peeled, cored, and sliced 1/4 inch thick

1 cup chopped pecans

1 1/4 cups brown sugar

1 stick  butter

1/2 tsp salt

2 tbs honey

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions

I bought pre-made crescent dough instead of taking the time to roll homemade dough.

Preheat oven to 400 F.

Grease 9 inch square baking pan

Place the apples, 1 tbs brown sugar, and 1 tbs butter on a parchment paper lined baking sheet; toss to coat. cover loosely with foil and roast until tender, 15 minutes.

After, Lower the temp to 350

In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup brown sugar, pecans, and cinnamon

Roll out your dough

Cut up 2 tbs of butter and dot the rolled out dough.  

Sprinkle the brown sugar mixture on top and cover evenly with the roasted apples.

Roll up the dough, jelly roll-style, and cut crosswise into 9 slices;

 place the slices cut side down in the prepared baking pan.  

Bake until golden, 35-40 minutes

Meanwhile in a saucepan,

 bring 4 tbs butter, 3/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup heavy cream,

 1/2 tsp salt and honey to a boil, stirring.

Whisk until reduced, about 2 minutes.

Let cool slightly 

Drizzle the sauce over the warm buns.
