Instructions

Prepare the dough by combining warm milk and yeast; let sit until frothy. Mix in sugar, flour, and softened butter to form a soft dough.
Knead on a floured surface for 8 minutes. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled (about 1 hour).
For the filling, mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread with softened butter; sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Roll tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch thick pieces. Arrange in greased pans over chopped pecans mixed with maple syrup.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Let rolls rise for another 30 minutes before baking for 25–30 minutes until golden brown.
