Slow Cooker Sticky Buns
Ingredients
1 cup melted butter, – 2 sticks (I used salted butter but you can use unsalted)
¾ cup packed light brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
1 can, 16.3 oz biscuit dough
1 cup pecans, chopped (you can substitute with walnuts as well)
Directions
Spray the liner of your slow cooker with non-stick baking spray. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl melt the butter.
Add the light brown sugar, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon. Using a whisk mix until combined.
Pour about 2-3 tablespoons of the mixture into the slow cooker.
Open the can of biscuit dough and place the biscuits on top of the mixture, on layer. It is a little tight, but you can arrange them so they all fit.
Pour the remaining butter mixture.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans.
Cover and cook for 1 hour 45 minutes on HIGH. Depending on your slow cooker, you may want to start checking them 90 minutes into the cooking. Your sticky buns are cooked when the dough is cooked through.
Take a spatula and carefully remove them from the slow cooker into a serving platter.
This step is optional. Some like to place them right side up and pour the syrup over them. Some like to flip the buns upside down on a serving platter. Either way, you get an ooey gooey mixture over the buns. Make sure to use a spoon to get all the caramel, and sticky sauce out.
Serve and Enjoy! These buns are excellent warm. Serve as is, with ice cream or powdered sugar.
