Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine warm milk, yeast, sugar, and melted butter. Allow the mixture to sit for 5-10 minutes until foamy. Add in flour, salt, and eggs, and knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Make the pecan topping: In a saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar. Stir in maple syrup and pecans, and cook until the mixture is bubbly and caramelized.
Assemble the buns: Roll out the dough into a rectangle and spread the pecan topping evenly over the surface. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice it into individual buns.
Bake the buns: Place the buns in a greased baking dish and bake in a preheated oven until golden brown and cooked through.
Make the caramel glaze: In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly, until it thickens into a caramel-like consistency.
Finish the buns: Drizzle the warm caramel glaze over the freshly baked pecan buns and serve immediately, while the buns are still warm and gooey.
