Ingredients

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup maple syrup
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 cup granulated sugar
• 1 can crescent roll dough

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch round baking dish or cake pan with butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar and maple syrup, cooking until the mixture bubbles and thickens slightly, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Pour the maple syrup mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top and set aside.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the cinnamon and granulated sugar together.

Step 5

Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and press the seams together to form one large rectangle.

Step 6

Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly on top.

Step 7

Starting with the long edge of the rectangle, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut the log into 8 equal slices.

Step 8

Place the slices, cut side down, into the prepared baking dish on top of the syrup and pecans.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Allow the sticky buns to cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then carefully invert the pan onto a serving plate so the sticky maple pecan topping oozes onto the buns. Serve warm and enjoy!
