Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm milk and let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy. Add the sugar, melted butter, salt, eggs, and half of the flour. Mix until well combined.
-
Gradually add the remaining flour, kneading until the dough is smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
-
While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, brown sugar, orange zest, and cinnamon until well combined.
-
Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a 16x20 inch rectangle. Spread the filling mixture evenly over the dough.
-
Starting from one long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 12 equal-sized rolls.
-
Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, cover with a kitchen towel, and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes.
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
-
While the rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, heat the orange juice until warm. Whisk in the powdered sugar and orange zest until smooth.
-
Once the rolls are done, drizzle the warm glaze over them and serve immediately. Enjoy these Sticky Orange Rolls warm for the ultimate indulgent breakfast treat!
