Ingredients

Method

1) Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas mark 6.

2) Place a 12 cup bun tin on a baking sheet lined with greaseproof paper.

3) In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar.

4) Place 1 rounded tablespoon of the mixture in each of the 12 cups and distribute the pecan nuts evenly among them on top of the butter and granulated sugar mixture.

5) On a lightly floured board or stone surface, unroll 1 sheet of puff pastry with the folds going left to right. Brush the whole sheet with half of the melted butter. Leaving a 2 1/2cm border around the pastry, sprinkle each sheet with half of the brown sugar, half of the cinnamon, half of the sultanas.

6) Starting with the end nearest you, roll the pastry up snugly, like a Swiss roll, around the filling, finishing the roll with the seam side down. Trim the ends of the roll about 1cm and discard. Slice the roll in 6 equal pieces, each about 4cm wide and place each piece, spiral side up, in 6 of the bun tin cups. Repeat with the second sheet of puff pastry to make 12 sticky buns.

7) Bake for 30 minutes, until the sticky buns are golden to dark brown on top and firm to the touch. Be careful - they're hot!

8) Allow to cool for 5 minutes only, invert the buns onto the greaseproof paper (ease the filling and pecans out onto the buns with a spoon) and allow cool completely before serving.
