Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Orange zest
- 0.25 cups Fresh orange juice
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.
2. Warm the milk in the microwave or on the stovetop until it reaches approximately 110°F (lukewarm). Add the melted butter and egg, whisking to combine.
3. Gradually add the milk mixture into the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes, or until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour or until it doubles in size.
5. After the dough has risen, roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle approximately 12 x 8 inches in size.
6. In a small bowl, mix together the orange zest, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Spread this mixture evenly over the rolled-out dough.
7. Starting at the longer edge, roll the dough tightly into a log. Slice the log into 12 equal pieces and place each piece into a greased muffin tin for mini rolls.
8. Cover the muffin tin with plastic wrap and let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes.
9. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the rolls for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top.
10. While the rolls bake, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar, fresh orange juice, and vanilla extract in a small bowl until smooth.
11. Once the rolls are done baking, let them cool for 5 minutes before drizzling the glaze on top.
12. Serve warm and enjoy your Yummy Mini Orange Rolls!
