Did you see the article circling around on Facebook last week about how a study from Japan determined eating ice cream for breakfast may improve mental performance and alertness? Well, this recipe for Easy Pecan Sticky Buns is here to help you out! That's right, these breakfast sweets are just a little bit sweeter by using ice cream as the "cream" in the caramel sauce! I know all of my ice cream fans are excited and everyone else is probably intrigued, so I won't wait any longer and I'll share this easy and simple recipe!
Easy Pecan Sticky Buns
2 cups Pecans, chopped
1 - 8 count Jumbo Refrigerated Buttermilk Biscuits
1/4 cup Cinnamon Sugar
1/2 cup Butter
1 cup Brown Sugar
1 cup Vanilla Ice Cream
Spray a 9x13 pan with cooking oil spray and spread pecans on the bottom of the pan. Roll the biscuits in cinnamon sugar and place on top of the nuts. (I like to sprinkle a little extra cinnamon sugar on top of each biscuit too 😉.) Do not crowd the biscuits, but they can be touching.
In a small sauce pan, mix the butter, brown sugar and ice cream; bring to a rolling boil for 1 minute. Pour the caramel over the biscuits. Bake at 350°F for 20 minutes. Let the rolls cool for 5 minutes and then flip over to enjoy!
I hope you like these Easy Pecan Sticky Buns as much as my family and I do. My favorite part of this recipe is probably that it is so simple to pull together and it uses ingredients I usually always have in my kitchen.
Having some crowd-pleasing, simple breakfast ideas is important for Easter Week when you have extra company staying over at your house. On Thursday, I'm going to share another breakfast or brunch idea that is great for entertaining.
