→ Maple-Pecan Filling
08 - ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
09 - ⅓ cup light brown sugar, packed
10 - ¼ cup pure maple syrup
11 - 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
12 - 1 cup pecans, finely chopped

# How To Make It:
01 - In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Separately, whisk together lukewarm milk, melted butter, and eggs. Integrate wet ingredients into dry mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms. Knead by hand or mixer for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover, and allow to rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 hour.
02 - While the dough rises, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar, maple syrup, and kosher salt. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until smooth. Pour glaze into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and sprinkle chopped pecans evenly over the surface.
03 - In a bowl, blend softened butter, brown sugar, maple syrup, and cinnamon into a smooth paste.
04 - Punch down the risen dough. On a lightly floured surface, roll it into a 12×16-inch rectangle. Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a ½-inch border around edges. Sprinkle finely chopped pecans evenly across the filling. Starting from the long edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Slice into 12 equal pieces.
05 - Arrange the rolls cut-side down atop the glaze in the prepared baking dish. Cover loosely and let rise until puffy, approximately 30 minutes.
06 - Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 28 to 32 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
07 - Carefully invert the baking dish onto a serving platter so the glaze and pecans are on top. Serve warm.
