Ingredients

For the cinnamon filling:

4 or 5 strips bacon

1/2 cup raw pecan halves or pieces

1 cup brown sugar

2 tablespoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon cloves

5 tablespoons butter, melted

For the dough:

3 cups all purpose flour

1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder

1/4 tablespoons salt

3 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 twelve-ounce bottle Abita Pecan Ale , at room temperature

For the caramel topping:

3 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons brown sugar

3/4 cup raw pecan halves or pieces

Directions

In a mixing bowl, mix remaining dry ingredients for cinnamon filling until blended. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Flour surface and rolling pin and roll dough out to 1/2-inch thickness. Brush melted butter over the rolled-out dough. Sprinkle cinnamon filling over dough and top with the toasted pecans and crumbled bacon if using. Roll up like a log. In the same cast iron pan, melt remaining 3 tablespoons butter with remaining brown sugar to make the caramel topping. Stir until dissolved. Add remaining raw pecans and distribute caramel evenly over the bottom of the pan. Remove from heat. Cut cinnamon-roll log into coinlike slices about 1 1/2 inches thick. Place each roll into pan on top of the caramel topping, starting in the center and working outward in concentric circles until pan is full. Brush roll tops lightly with butter and bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes Place a round platter on top of pan and invert rolls onto platter so caramel topping is on top. Serve immediately.
