Don't let these buns seem so tiny. Trust me, each one is a true flavor bomb! They're easiest to make with store-bought yeast pie dough. Generously buttered and sprinkled with pecans, cinnamon, and sugar, they'll be as delicious as if you baked them from scratch.

Preparation:

Step 1
• Preheat oven to 190°C.
Step 2
• Sticky Nut Glaze:
  
  Melt the butter in a skillet and add the nuts, corn syrup, and vanilla. Let the mixture foam for a minute, then remove from heat. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the filling into each of three 24-cup mini muffin tins.
Step 3
• Cinnamon buns:
  
  Divide the dough into three pieces and roll each piece into a 15x60 cm rectangle with the long side facing you (the sheet should be very thin!). Spread a third of the melted butter over each piece, then sprinkle evenly with sugar and cinnamon.
Step 4
• Starting from the far end, roll the dough toward you. You'll end up with a tight roll 60 cm long. Using a sharp knife, cut into slices approximately 0.5 cm thick. Repeat with the remaining layers of dough.
Step 5
• Place the sliced ​​buns into the muffin tins on top of the nut topping, tucking the ends in and pressing firmly into the topping.
Step 6
• Bake the cinnamon rolls until golden brown, 12–13 minutes. Immediately remove the rolls from the pan. Carefully flip them over to release them and prevent any nuts from sticking to the pan. If any nuts stick to the pan, simply spoon them onto the rolls.
