Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

  • 4 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast

  • ½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)

  • 1 ¼ cups buttermilk

  • 2 large eggs

  • 5 ½ cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup margarine, softened

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 2 tablespoons butter, softened

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • 1 cup chopped pecans

  • ½ cup packed brown sugar

  • ½ cup butter, melted

Directions

  1. Dissolve yeast in warm water in a large mixing bowl. Add buttermilk, eggs, 2 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 cup margarine, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt. Blend 30 seconds with mixer on low speed, scraping sides and bottom of bowl. Beat 2 minutes on medium speed. Stir in remaining 3 cups flour. (Dough should remain soft and slightly sticky). Knead for 5 minutes, or about 200 turns on a lightly floured board. Cover dough and allow to rest for half an hour.

  2. Divide dough in half and roll each half into a 12x7 inch rectangle. Spread each half with 1 tablespoon soft butter; sprinkle with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Roll up the halves, beginning at the wide side. Seal well by pinching the seams. Cut each roll into 12 slices.

  3. Coat two 9-inch round cake pans with 1/4 cup melted butter, 1/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 cup chopped pecans in each pan. Place 12 dough slices in each pan, leaving a small space between slices. Let rise until doubled.

  4. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  5. Bake buns in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Invert pans onto serving plates immediately.
