Ingredients
Dough
- 2 ¼ teaspoon active dry yeast
- ¼ cup warm water
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup milk
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 orange zest from 1 orange
Filling
- ½ cup orange marmalade
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoon orange juice
Instructions
- 1. In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water with a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for 5 minutes until frothy.
- 2. Add the remaining sugar, milk, melted butter, salt, egg, and 1 cup of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
- 3. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
- 4. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll into a 15x10-in. rectangle. Spread marmalade over dough to within ½ in. of edges. Sprinkle with brown sugar and softened butter.
- 5. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seam to seal. Cut into 12 slices. Place cut side down in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
- 6. Bake at 375°F for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
- 7. For glaze, combine powdered sugar and orange juice until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls.
