Ingredients

Scale

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 ¼ tsp instant yeast (1 packet)
1 tsp salt
1 cup whole milk
½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
1 cup chopped pecans (lightly toasted)
½ cup brown sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Warm the milk and combine with melted butter; pour into dry ingredients to form dough.
Knead on a floured surface until smooth (about 5 minutes). Place in a greased bowl and cover, letting it rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
Punch down the dough and roll into a rectangle. Spread softened butter, then sprinkle with brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans.
Roll tightly into a log and slice into equal pieces (about 1 inch thick). Arrange in a greased baking dish and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 25 minutes until golden brown. Drizzle with extra caramel sauce before serving.
