Instructions

  1. Make the cinnamon roll dough and let it rise until doubled.
  2. Simmer the butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, and salt for 1 minute; pour into a greased 9×13-inch pan and scatter with pecans.
  3. Fill, roll, and cut the dough into 12 buns. Arrange over the caramel.
  4. Cover and refrigerate overnight (up to 16 hours).
  5. In the morning, let stand 30 minutes while the oven heats to 350°F. Bake 28–32 minutes.
  6. Rest 3 minutes, then invert onto a platter and scrape any caramel over the top.

Baker's tip

Line the pan with parchment for easy cleanup; caramel is stubborn.
