Homemade Orange Sweet Rolls

Yield: 12 rolls Prep Time: 35 mins Cook Time: 15 mins Total Time: 50 mins

••••A PERFECT THANKSGIVING 🦃

••••BREAKFAST🥮!!

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

1 1/2 cups water

1 Tablespoon instant yeast (such as Red Star Platinum Instant Yeast)

3 1/2 cups bread flour

2 Tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest (about 1 medium orange)

For the Filling:

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature

1/4 cup Orange Marmalade

1/4 cup granulated sugar

For the Glaze:

1.5 cup powdered sugar

3 Tablespoons orange juice

1 1/2 teaspoons orange zest (about 1 medium orange)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon butter extract

1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Directions:

To make the dough:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.

Heat the water for 1 minute in the microwave. Immediately add the yeast and brown sugar into the bowl of a standard mixer fitted with a dough hook and pour the warm/hot water over the yeast. There is no need to stir the yeast. About ten seconds after the water and yeast have had a chance to mix, the yeast should foam and form bubbles. Let the yeast rest for about 2 minutes.

In medium bowl combine flour salt, cinnamon, and orange zest. Add flour mixture and mix for 2 minutes. If dough is super sticky add small amounts of flour until dough stops sticking to sides. I had to add about 1/4 cup more. Do not add more than 1/2 cup.

Let rest for 10 minutes.

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it with your hands for about 5-6 minutes until a tight ball forms.

Using a rolling in, roll into a 15×9 inch rectangle. I used a ruler for accuracy. Make sure the dough is smooth and evenly thick, even at the corners.

For the filling:

Spread the dough rectangle with softened butter. Spoon the orange marmalade across width of dough, it’s okay if it does not spread the entire length. Sprinkle generously with granulated sugar.

Tightly roll up the dough and cut into 12-15 even rolls (1 1/2 inch in width each) with a very sharp knife. Arrange them in the prepared baking pan, cut sides up.

Bake rolls for about 15 minutes, until they are lightly golden in color. Transfer the pan to a rack to cool for about 15 minutes.

For the Glaze:

In a small bowl, mix together all of the glaze ingredients and drizzle over rolls before serving.

Store in an air tight container for up to 3 days. Rolls taste best fresh out of the oven; but if not serving immediately, do not ice, cool to room temperature, reheat and glaze just before serving.
