1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. brown sugar, packed
1/4 c. maple syrup
3/4 c. chopped walnuts
2 1/2 - 2 3/4 c. flour
1 pkg. active dry yeast
1/4 c. sugar
3/4 tsp. salt
1/3 c. softened butter
2/3 c. warm water (110 to 120 degrees)
2 eggs
Maple syrup

To prepare pan, melt 1/4 cup butter in saucepan. Add brown sugar and 1/4 cup maple syrup. Heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Pour into pan and sprinkle with 1/2 cup of the walnuts. In mixing bowl, stir together 3/4 cup of the flour, the yeast, sugar, and salt. Add 1/3 cup butter and warm water. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed, scraping bowl occasionally. Add eggs and 1/4 cup more flour. Beat at high speed 2 minutes. Stir in enough more flour to make a soft dough.

Turn out onto lightly floured board and knead 10 minutes or until dough is smooth and satiny. Roll dough to a 14 x 9 inch rectangle. Spread lightly with maple syrup and sprinkle with remaining nuts. Roll up into 9 inch roll. Pinch seam to seal. Cut into 9 (1 inch) slices and arrange, cut side up, in prepared pan. Cover lightly with plastic wrap. Let rise in warm place about 1 1/4 hours or until light. Bake at 375 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand in pan 10 minutes. Then turn out on large plate to cool.
