My son was home for a visit so I used this opportunity to make the ‘labor of love’ Brioche Sticky Buns from Baking with Dorie. The recipe is a two day process since the brioche dough needs to rest overnight.
Once the dough is chilled, it is pretty straightforward on making the buns. Roll out to a rectangle, fill with the sugar/spice mixture, set in the caramel sauce and let rise for two hours. I am not an expert roller as my buns always come out in varying sizes. These buns baked up quite nicely though.
I really wanted to have these for breakfast but the timing was not right, we ended up having them for dessert. These were a rousing success and quickly disappeared. We did have the leftovers the next day for breakfast which was my favorite part, coffee and buns. We also saved the caramel sauce from the plate to have with ice cream.
To see what others thought head over to Tuesdays with Dorie.

Gorgeous photos of the buns…and thank you for the tips on the two day timing. They look absolutely perfectly delicious…all that caramel sauce! Yum. Sounds like everyone there appreciated and loved the buns, always a good feeling.

delicious! I wouldn’t waste a speck of that sauce either. I’m sure I’ll serve mine for dessert, too, bc I am not a morning person 🙂

OMG, these buns look awesome! Right up my alley. Taking note that they need plenty of time to make – time is not my friend at present.
