The sticky bun recipe is pretty simple to put together. The dough is so easy to work out and it smells great. I almost just want to eat it as is.

I made each of the 3 slurries, in order to test and see which one I would like best. The creamy caramel slurry was the best tasting before baking.

When I baked Sticky Buns, I had a big problem. The slurry in the bottom of each pan caramelized and burned before the Sticky Buns had a chance to fully cook. The recipe says cooking time should be 20-25 minutes and I had to remove them from the oven at about 18 minutes, mostly cooked, but the slurries were burned.

I am not sure where the recipe went wrong. Perhaps next time I will turn the oven down or perhaps make more slurry for each. I made 1/3 of each slurry recipe for each 1/3 of the cinnamon buns. Perhaps more slurry would make sure it didn’t caramelize and burn so quickly.

I managed to salvage one Sticky Bun with the Honey Almonds Slurry and it was very good.
