Units Scale
DOUGH:
- 2/3 cup lukewarm water
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 2 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons instant yeast
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup instant nonfat dry milk
FILLING:
- 3/4 cup orange marmalade (I used Smucker's all natural)
- 1 cup fresh cranberries
ICING:
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 to 2 tablespoons orange juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
Instructions
- Combine all dough ingredients in the order listed in a large mixing bowl fitted with dough hook. Knead until fully combined and silky, about 3-5 minutes. Dough will be soft.
- Place in a greased bowl, cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
- Press dough down gently. Pat it down or roll it into a 14″ x 12″ rectangle. Spread orange marmalade evenly oven dough. Pulse cranberries in a food processor until they’re very finely minced. Spread over orange marmalade. Leaving a 2″ space along one long side. (This will allow the dough to be pinched together better. If it’s wet from the jelly it won’t pinch together.)
- Roll into a log form starting with short side. Cut into 9 or 10 even slices. Place in a lightly greased 9″ square or 11″ x 7″ rectangle pan. Cover and let rise until puffy, about 45 – 60 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake until golden brown around edges. Tent with foil if browning too quickly.
ICING:
- In a small bowl combine and stir confectioner’s sugar with orange juice, vanilla extract and orange zest (optional). Stir until smooth. Spread over warm rolls. Serve warm.
Notes
If baking in a metal pan reduce baking time by about 5 minutes.
May be frozen for longer storage. Wrap well and place in freezer for up to 1 month.
