Orange Dessert Rolls
« on: April 07, 2011, 05:35:45 pm »
Thanks to my good friend and fellow dutch oven enthusiast, Nathan Mower for this recipe. He made them for a Young Womens Camp meeting and he says that they turned out great. He served them right out of the ovens and they were a big hit.

Ingredients:
  • Dough for 12 rolls (Use your favorite dinner roll recipe or use frozen roll dough)
  • Grated rind of 1 medium orange
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted

Glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preparation:
Mix orange rind with sugar. Roll each dough ball in melted butter, then in orange rind/sugar mixture. Place in Dutch oven coated with melted butter or sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Cover and let raise in a warm place until double in size. Bake at 350 degrees (8-10 briquettes bottom heat and 12-14 briquettes top heat) for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown, rotating oven and lid 90 degrees in opposite directions a couple of times during baking.

Mix together glaze ingredients until well-combined. Brush the baked rolls with the glaze while and serve while still warm.
