Kittencals Raisin Sticky Buns Recipes

KITTENCAL'S RAISIN STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• Lighty grease a metal 13 x 9-inch baking pan.
• Prepare sweet dough recipe as directed.
• In a small bowl mix together 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, cinnamon and ginger powder; set aside.
• While the dough is rising prepare the syrup by combining all syrup ingredients in a small saucepan; heat over medium heat stirring with wooden spoon until butter is melted and the sugar has dissolved; pour HALF of the syrup mixture into the bottom of the baking dish, spreading out with a spoon to cover evenly; set aside the remaining half to drizzle on top of buns later.
• When the dough has finished rising punch dough, remove from bowl onto lightly floured surface; cover dough and let rest 5 minutes before rolling out (this will allow for easier shaping and rolling).
• Roll out into a 12 x 8-inch rectangle (does not have to measure exactly).
• Spread 1/2 cup softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle with prepared sugar/cinnamon mixture evenly over the butter.
• Scatter the raisins over evenly.
• Roll up dough jell-roll style starting at the long side, then pinch dough together along the top to seal.
• Using a serrated knife cut into 12 even slices.
• Place the slices cut side down on top of the syrup (3 across the pan and 4 down).
• Drizzle the remaining syrup of the top of each slice of dough.
• Cover with a clean tea towel and let rise for 30-50 minutes or until doubled (the rising time will depend on what dough recipe you are using and the temperature of the room).
• Bake in a 375°F oven for about 25 minutes or until golden brown.

KAHLUA CINNAMON RAISIN ROLLS

Steps:

• Soften yeast in water.
• Combine hot milk, shortening, sugar and salt in mixing bowl. Add 1 cup flour and beat well. Add yeast, egg and remaining flour and mix to moderately stiff dough. Turn out onto floured board. Knead gently to smooth out and round up dough. Cover and let rise until double in bulk, 50 to 60 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare Spiced Raisin Sugar Filling and Pan Syrup.
• When dough has risen, turn out and roll to rectangle, about 16 x 12-inches on lightly floured board. Spread with Spiced Raisin Sugar Filling. Roll up like a jellyroll, starting from long side. Cut into 12 slices. Arrange slices in 9-inch round cake pan prepared with Kahlua Pan Syrup. Press slices to flatten slightly. Let rise in pan until almost double in bulk, about 25 minutes.
• Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes, until richly browned. Remove from oven. Let roll stand in pan 5 minutes, then turn out upside down onto serving plate. Spoon reserved Kahlua Pan Syrup over top.
• To make Spiced Raisin Sugar filling: Beat butter, sugar and cinnamon together until smooth. Beat in Kahlua mixed with raisins.
• To make Kahlua Pan Syrup: Measure butter, brown sugar, corn syrup and Kahlua into small saucepan. Bring to simmering. Reserve 1/3 cup syrup to spoon over baked rolls. Turn remainder into 9-inch round cake pan.

STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Combine the yeast mixture with the buttermilk, eggs, 2 1/2 cups flour, 1/4 cup softened butter, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Dough should remain soft and slightly sticky. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.
• Divide dough in half and roll each half into a 12x7 inch rectangle. Spread each half with 1 tablespoon softened butter and sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Roll up halves, beginning at wide side. Seal well by pinching the seams. Cut each roll into 12 slices.
• Coat two 9 inch round cake pans each with 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 2 tablespoons raisins and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. Place 12 dough slices in each pan, leaving a small space between slices. Cover and let rise until doubled.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in a preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Invert pans onto plates and serve.

MOM-MOM'S STICKY BUNS

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in lukewarm water in a large bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes. Stir flour, eggs, warm milk, 1/2 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter, and salt into the yeast and water until the mixture is a moist and sticky dough.
• Put dough in a greased bowl and cover with a wet towel. Set aside in a warm place until dough doubles in size and holes poked into dough with a finger stay indented, about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Stir brown sugar, 1/2 cup butter, honey, and corn syrup together in a saucepan over medium heat; cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves. Pour the topping mixture into the bottom of 2 9x13-inch non-stick baking dishes. Sprinkle 1 cup raisins and walnuts evenly onto the topping mixture.
• Punch down dough and roll into a rectangle shape 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick.
• Brush 1/4 cup melted butter over the dough rectangle. Stir 3/4 cup white sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl; sprinkle over the butter. Sprinkle 1 cup raisins evenly over the dough. Roll dough around the filling into a cylinder; cut into 3/4-inch slices and arrange into the baking dishes. Set aside to rest for 20 minutes or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
