Notes

Storage Instructions

If you happen to have any of these pecan sticky buns left over, they store beautifully and reheat well.

Room Temperature:
Once the rolls have cooled completely, cover the pan tightly with foil or transfer them to an airtight container. They can be kept at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Refrigerator:
For longer storage, place the sticky rolls in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.

Freezer:
Yes, you can freeze pecan sticky rolls after they are baked. Allow the rolls to cool completely, then place them in a freezer-safe container or wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and foil. Freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw overnight in the refrigerator or on the counter.

Reheating:
To bring back that warm, gooey texture, warm individual sticky buns in the microwave for about 15–20 seconds. If reheating several rolls, cover the pan loosely with foil and warm them in a 300°F oven for about 10 minutes.

Warming them up melts that caramel-like topping again, making these pecan cinnamon rolls just as irresistible as when they first came out of the oven.
