Quick tip: It can be tricky to cut the log of sticky bun dough without squishing the filling. Instead of a knife, use unwaxed dental floss to create uniformly round buns. Simply place a piece of floss under the log, 1” from the end. Bring the ends up, cross them over the top and pull to slice off a perfect pinwheel.
