Kerrygold Basic Breakfast Sticky Buns
Serves 12
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup softened, divided Kerrygold Pure Irish Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 loaf (1/3 of a 32-oz. pkg.) frozen bread dough, thawed
Directions
The possibilities for variations are endless, but the one constant is a great sticky bun made with rich, pure Irish butter. The softened natural butter gives the buns a moist, delicate texture and adds a flavor only Kerrygold can bring. These sticky buns are the champions of breakfast.
- In a small saucepan melt 6 tablespoons Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter; pour into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish, tipping dish to coat bottom with butter.
- In a small bowl stir together brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Sprinkle 3/4 cup mixture over melted butter and set aside.
- Roll dough into a 12 x 12-inch square on a lightly floured board and spread with remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Sprinkle remaining brown sugar mixture over butter and press lightly into dough.
- Roll up tightly and pinch seams to seal. Cut into 1-inch slices with a serrated knife.
- Place in prepared baking dish; cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
- Bake in preheated 350° F oven for 25 minutes, tenting surface with foil if top browns too quickly.
- Let stand for 5 minutes, then invert onto a serving platter.
