DREAMY DECADENT ORANGE ROLLS



Dreamy Decadent Orange Rolls image

This uses a "sponge-method" sweet yeast dough and it rises three times: once in a near-liquid batter with about half the flour, once in a ball after kneading, and once in the final pan. A warm room will help tremendously with rising. The three hours includes rising and baking time. Juice of blood orange gives the frosting a unique color.

Time 3h

Yield 30 rolls in two 9x13 pans, approx, 30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup water, lukewarm
4 tablespoons honey
2 (1/4 ounce) packets each active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups milk
3/4 cup shortening
2 teaspoons salt
8 cups flour, divided, plus some
flour, for the board
1 tablespoon blood orange zest
1 cup granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups light brown sugar, plus
2 tablespoons cinnamon, ground
1/4 lb butter, melted
6 ounces pecans, chopped
6 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup blood orange juice
1 tablespoon blood orange zest
4 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Rolls:.
  • Mix lukewarm water, yeast, and honey, stir to dissolve, and set aside.
  • Heat milk over medium heat until almost boiling. Remove from heat and stir in the shortening to melt it. Allow to stand 5-10 minutes to cool to lukewarm.
  • In a large bowl, mix milk (with shortening), salt, and 3 cups flour, then add yeast mixture. Beat thoroughly. Tent with a damp cloth and let rise 20 minutes in a warm place. It will be thick liquid at this stage, like pancake batter.
  • Beat the eggs slightly. Add eggs, granulated sugar, 4 cups more flour, and 1 T. orange zest; mix thoroughly, then coat with flour and turn onto a floured board. Knead, sprinkling just enough flour to keep it from sticking, until dough ball can be handled without sticking to hands. Ball and return to bowl. Tent again and let rise another half-hour.
  • Turn onto the board again, knead a little more, and divide in half. Flour surfaces and roll out each half, one at a time, to about 12x18 inches. Spread each with half the melted butter. Sprinkle half the brown sugar over the surface followed by pecans. (You can also add raisins, walnuts, and/or hazelnuts, and vary the amount of brown sugar.) Sprinkle with cinnamon.
  • Starting from the long edge, roll up the sheet of dough with the sugar, cinnamon and nuts inside. Work the roll into a long uniform shape. With a sharp buttered knife, slice the roll into fifteen equal sections. Arrange them, spiral up, in five rows of three, in a greased 9x13 pan. (A little space between them is OK.).
  • Tent and let rise until they fill the pan, about half an hour or somewhat more.
  • Heat oven to 400°F.
  • Bake in center of oven 22 minutes or until desired golden brown on top.
  • Frosting:.
  • While rolls are baking, melt butter over medium-low heat. Add orange juice directly to pan.

  • Remove from heat. Add orange zest and mix well. Quickly spread on rolls as soon as they are out of the oven.

HIGH FIVE ORANGE ROLLS

My son loves the orange rolls that come in a can. But he wanted them homemade. After trying a couple recipes and none of them meeting his approval, I came up with my own. After getting thumbs up AND a high five from my son, I finally had a recipe! These are made overnight and baked in the morning.

Time 11h35m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1 cup warm milk
½ cup warm water
1 egg, beaten
½ cup orange juice
½ cup butter, melted
¼ cup instant vanilla pudding mix
1 tablespoon orange extract
5 cups bread flour, or more if needed
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon orange extract
¾ cup white sugar
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup butter, softened
2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons orange extract
2 tablespoons milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Sprinkle 1 tablespoon white sugar and the yeast over the warm milk and warm water in a bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes. Mix in the egg, 1/2 cup orange juice, melted butter, vanilla pudding mix, and 1 tablespoon orange extract. Stir in 5 cups bread flour and salt. Add more bread flour if the dough is too sticky. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Place the dough in an oiled bowl and cover with a clean cloth. Allow the dough to rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Combine 1/2 cup softened butter with the orange zest and 1 teaspoon orange extract in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside. Grease a baking sheet, or cover with parchment paper.
  • Turn the dough out on a floured surface and roll out into a 24x12-inch rectangle. Spread the butter mixture evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with 3/4 cup white sugar. Roll up the dough, beginning with the long side. Cut the dough into 18 1 1/2-inch rolls. Arrange the rolls cut-side up on prepared baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Remove the plastic wrap from the rolls and allow them to rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Allow rolls to cool slightly before frosting.
  • While the rolls are baking, cream together the cream cheese and 1/2 cup softened butter until smooth. Stir in the confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons orange extract. Stir in milk, a little at a time, until frosting is smooth and spreadable. Spread the frosting over the slightly cooled rolls.

Tips:

  • To ensure the orange rolls are perfectly cooked, insert a toothpick into the center of one roll. If it comes out clean, the rolls are done.
  • For a sweeter glaze, add an extra 1/2 cup of powdered sugar to the glaze ingredients.
  • To make the rolls ahead of time, prepare the dough and shape it into rolls. Place the rolls in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, let the rolls come to room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
  • If you don't have an orange, you can use 1 teaspoon of orange extract in the dough and glaze.
  • For a fun twist, add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or dried fruit to the filling.
