Directions:Combine yeast, 1 tsp sugarr and 1/2 c warm water in a bowl until foamy, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, bring milk to simmer in a 1 qt saucepan over medium heat; set aside for 5 minutes. Stir in remaining sugar, 4 T butter, salt, and stir into yeast mixture with vanilla, 2 eggs and flour until just combined. Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
Heat oven to 375º. Melt remaining butter in a 1 qt saucepan over medium heat, add brown sugar, stir until smooth, and pour into a 9"x13" baking dish; sprinkle with pecans.
Transfer dough to a floured surface and roll into a 15"x20" rectangle. Spread Nutella evenly over dough, leaving a 1/2 inch border on one long side. Beat remaining egg in a bowl, brush the clean border of the dough with the egg. Roll the dough into a log toward the end brushed with egg; trim ends and cut the log into 12 rounds. Transfer rounds cut side up to the baking dish, sprinkle with cinnamon and bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving. Serve inverted onto plates and drizzle with syrup and nuts from the bottom of the baking dish. |
