Ingredients

2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar, divided
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup fat-free plain yogurt
1/2 cup fat-free milk
1/4 cup water
3 tablespoons butter or stick margarine, divided
3/4 cup chopped pecans, toasted
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 egg white, lightly beaten
ICING:
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons fat free milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, yeast, salt and baking soda. In a saucepan, heat the yogurt, milk, water and 2 tablespoons butter to 120 degrees F-130 degrees F. Add to dry ingredients; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to form soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl coated with nonstick cooking spray; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Punch dough down. Roll into a 14-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Melt remaining butter; brush over dough. Combine pecans, brown sugar, cinnamon and remaining sugar; sprinkle evenly over dough to within 1/2 in. of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam.

Line a baking sheet with foil; coat well with nonstick cooking spray. Place dough seam side down on prepared pan; pinch ends together to form a ring. With scissors, cut from the outside edge two-thirds of the way toward center of ring at 1-in. intervals. Separate strips slightly and twist. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.

Brush with egg white. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from pan to wire rack. Combine icing ingredients; drizzle over warm ring.
