Biscuit Sticky Buns

A quick and easy version of a decadent bake-shop treat that’s done in 40 minutes!

Though there are a few components, each one takes only a few minutes to make. The sticky topping is a melted blend of brown sugar, butter and honey; the bun portion is a cream biscuit dough with a sprinkling of cinnamon/brown sugar filling (I omitted the currants). The buns were in the oven in 15 minutes!

The biscuit portion was tender and the filling and topping sweet, but not excessively so. The topping was not as gooey as some, which is probably why the recipe calls for a final glaze of warm honey, which I omitted, but I didn’t mind this. What I would do differently though, is use a different baking pan: I used a layer cake pan which I know does not brown very well……. perfect for layer cakes, but not for when you want a browned bottom! Because of lack of browning, some of the topping was absorbed by the biscuit dough.

I will definitely make these again, in a different pan, either as is or as cinnamon buns, omitting the topping portion and drizzling the baked buns with a cream cheese glaze instead.
