Ingredients & Equipment You’ll Need
- 1/2 cup of butter
- 1/2 cup of brown sugar
- 1/2 cup of toasted pecans
- 1 package of frozen bread rolls
- 1 package of butterscotch pudding mix
- 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon

The butter and brown sugar create a caramel-like glaze that makes the sticky buns, well, sticky. The butterscotch pudding mix adds an extra layer of flavor to the glaze, while the pecans provide a nice crunch. Don’t worry, if you’re not a fan of pecans, you can easily substitute them with walnuts or omit them altogether.
How To Make Sticky Buns
- Start by melting the butter in a pan over medium heat, then add brown sugar and stir until dissolved. Pour the mixture into the bundt pan.
- Sprinkle the toasted pecans over the sugar mixture. Arrange the frozen bread rolls on top. Sprinkle with cinnamon and dry pudding mix.
- Cover with a clean dish towel and let rise overnight.
- When ready to bake, go through the dough to make sure it has doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 350��F (175��C). Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
- Once done, let it cool before flipping the pan upside down to release the sticky buns.
Tips For The Best Results
- Use a non-stick bundt pan for easy release.
- Check the expiry of the yeast in your bread rolls package. Old yeast might not help the bread rise.
Storage Tips
- These buns are best served fresh, but they can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- They can also be frozen for up to 2 months, just reheat before serving.
