sticky buns
Caramelized breakfast rolls
Sticky buns are sweet pastries made from rolled dough, typically coated with a caramelized mixture of butter, brown sugar, and often pecans or cinnamon.
The "sticky" comes from the gooey topping that coats the buns when inverted after baking.
A close relative of cinnamon rolls, sticky buns are particularly associated with American breakfast and brunch: We grabbed sticky buns from the bakery on our way to the meeting.
