INSTRUCTIONS
Just the aroma of these buns baking in the oven is enough to drive your taste buds wild, but the massive fat reduction from the original should let you enjoy them with guilt-free calm. So go ahead - savor a warm bun. *NOTE: Original recipe called for skim milk. Preheat the oven to 425 deg F. Coat an 8" round baking pan with nonstick spray. In a small saucepan over low heat, stir 4 T of the brown sugar, the corn syrup and water until the brown sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and sprinkle with the pecans. In a medium bowl, combine the flours, baking powder and 1/2 t of the cinnamon. With a pastry blender, cut in the margarine until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the raisins and milk, and stir just until moistened. Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead it 10 times. Roll the dough into an 8 x 10" rectangle. Sprinkle the rectangle with the remaining 1 T of brown sugar and the remaining 1/2 t of brown sugar and the remaining cinnamon. Starting from a long side of the rectangle, roll up the dough into a cylinder. Cut the cylinder into 1" slices. Place the slices, cut side down, into the prepared pan. Bake until the buns are golden brown, 12 - 15 min. Place cut side up onto a serving plate. Serve warm. Makes 10 buns. Variation: Substitute reduced-cal pancake syrup for the dark corn syrup and omit the water. These are really good! Reggie's Notes: 1. I omitted the pecans 2. Next time I will make a little more of the syrup and use the extra to pour over the bottoms of sticky buns when I put them into the round baking dish. I hope this will get some of the syrup into the roll. I don't want to put the syrup in and then roll it up - don't think that the roll will stay together. 3. Ended up cooking them a bit longer then recommended as they were not done at the specified time. 4. Are much better hot then cold.

A Message from our Provider:
“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged. #Ralph Davis”
