Nutty Sticky Buns

!!

Hi everyone! Today's recipe is another fantastic yet very easy dessert, it does take some time for the dough to rise, but once you beat everything together, you just let the yeast do its job and wait for the dough to be ready! Every minute of this recipe is well worth it, these Buns are Delicious! I hope you like these Buns as much as my family and I.

Add in the water, 2 tablespoons of softened butter and 1 egg, stir well, until everything is incorporated into a sticky dough, then add in the remaining 1 cup of flour. Mix everything with your hands, until you have a soft and elastic dough. (not sticky anymore) Once the dough is ready. cover it with a clean kitchen towel and let it rise until doubled. (30-40 minutes)

On a floured surface roll out the dough to a 16 x 13 in rectangle, about ½ inch thick. Cover the surface of this rectangle with the remaining butter, and sprinkle the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture all of the surface of the butter rectangle.

Starting with the 16 inch side of the rectangle, roll it up tightly.  Cut into 16 slices and place the slices in the prepare pan with the nuts and maple syrup. Cover them with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
