Orange Marmalade Biscuit Recipes

Steps:

• Wash the oranges and lemon thoroughly. Cut the oranges into 1/8-inch slices using a mandoline, removing the seeds as you go. Stack the orange slices and cut them into quarters. Place the oranges into an 8-quart stainless steel pot. Add the lemon zest and juice and the water to the pot, set over high heat and bring to a boil, approximately 10 minutes. Once boiling, reduce the heat to maintain a rapid simmer and cook, stirring frequently, for 40 minutes or until the fruit is very soft.
• While the fruit is cooking, fill a large pot (at least 12-quart) 3/4 full with water, set over high heat and bring to a boil. Place 10 (8-ounce) jars and rings, canning funnel, ladle, and tongs into the boiling water and make sure the water covers the jars by at least an inch. Boil for 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the lids and leave everything in the pot until the marmalade is ready.
• Meanwhile, place a small plate in the freezer. Increase the heat under the orange mixture to return to full boil. Add the sugar and stir the mixture continually, until it reaches 222 to 223 degrees F on a deep-fry or candy thermometer, and darkens in color, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. You may need to adjust the heat in order to prevent boil over. Test the readiness of the marmalade by placing a teaspoon of the mixture onto the chilled plate and allowing it to sit for 30 seconds. Tilt the plate. The mixture should be a soft gel that moves slightly. If mixture is thin and runs easily, it is not ready.
• Remove jars from the water and drain on a clean towel. Place a canning funnel onto the top of 1 of the jars and ladle in the marmalade just to below the bottom of the threads of the jar. Repeat until all of the mixture has been used. The amount of marmalade may vary by 1 to 2 jars. Wipe the rims and threads of the jars with a moist paper towel and top each with a lid. Place a ring on each jar and tighten.
• Return the jars to the pot with boiling water, being certain that they don't touch the bottom of the pot or each other. (If you don't have a jar rack, try a round cake rack, or metal mesh basket. Even a folded kitchen towel on the pot bottom will do in a pinch.) Add additional water if necessary to cover the jars by at least an inch. Boil for 10 minutes. Using canning tongs, carefully remove the jars from the water, place in a cool dry place and allow to sit at room temperature for at least 24 hours before opening. Once open, store in the refrigerator. Unopened marmalade will last for up to 6 months.

Steps:

• Put 1/3 cup sugar and the zest in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix, scraping down sides of bowl as needed, until combined, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, and remaining tablespoon sugar in a medium bowl. Using a pastry blender or two knives, blend in butter until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk; stir with a wooden spoon just until a sticky dough forms.
• Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface. Pat dough together, and press into an 8-by-11-by-1-inch rectangle. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar mixture on top. Using a bench scraper or spatula to lift dough, fold rectangle into thirds (as you would a letter).
• Give dough a quarter turn. Roll out into an 8-by-11-by-1-inch rectangle. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar mixture on top. Fold into thirds. Transfer dough to a lightly floured parchment-paper-lined baking sheet. Tightly cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Return dough to floured work surface. Roll out again into an 8-by-11-by-1-inch rectangle. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons sugar mixture on top. Fold into thirds. Sprinkle remaining sugar mixture on top.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Using a 2 1/2-inch biscuit or cookie cutter, cut rounds from dough (still folded); transfer to a baking sheet. Tightly cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Bake until biscuits are just browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer biscuits to a wire rack. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 170 celcius.
• Beat eggs and sugar until light and creamy, and ripples form while you're beating the eggs.
• Add salt, vegetable shortening, marmalade, lemon juice, rind, and mix well.
• Fold in the flour and mix until a dough forms. Add the walnuts and mix again.
• Using a spoon, form cookie balls onto a greased tray and flatten with a fork.
• Bake for 12 - 14 minutes until sides turn brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Grease a cookie sheet (I just use parchment paper).
• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the egg and orange marmalade and mix until thoroughly combined. Add additional marmalade if the batter is too stiff.
• In another bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. With the mixer running, slowly add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture until blended.
• Drop by spoonfuls on the cookie sheet; do not crowd the cookies as the batter will spread during baking. Bake until the cookies spread out and are lightly browned, 8-10 minutes.
• Cool a minute or two on the cookie sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
• *The original yield was 40 cookies, but I must have made them a little large, because I only ended up with 22.

Steps:

• For the jam: Using a vegetable peeler remove the zest of the oranges and lemons. Cut the zest pieces into thin slices, then finely chop or grind and set aside. Peel and discard remaining white part of the peel from fruit. Chop fruit pulp, reserving any juice and set aside. Place the peels, water and baking soda in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the reserved fruit and juice and cover. Simmer an additional 10 minutes. Stir the 6 cups sugar into the prepared fruit in the saucepan. Add the butter to reduce foaming. Bring mixture to a full rolling boil on high heat stirring constantly. Stir in pectin. Return to a boil and boil exactly 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in pectin. Remove from heat and skim off any foam with metal spoon. Toss the blueberries with honey. Place into a small saucepan and cook over medium heat for 1 minute. Scoop out blueberries and add to marmalade. Reduce liquid to a syrup and stir into the finished marmalade. Serve at room temperature.
• For the biscuits: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Using a dough cutter, combine until ingredients are incorporated. Scatter the cold butter pieces over the top of the flour mixture and continue to combine until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add the buttermilk and pulse until the mixture just begins to come together. Scrape the dough onto a lightly flour counter. Pat the dough into a 10 by 12-inch rectangle about 3/4-inch thick. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out biscuits. Press together the scraps of dough, and repeat process. Place the biscuits on 2 baking sheets lined with parchment paper; brush the tops with cream and sprinkle with black pepper. Bake the biscuits for 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and brush the tops with melted butter.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray. In medium bowl, stir Bisquick mix, orange peel and milk until soft dough forms.
• Place dough on surface generously sprinkled with Bisquick mix; roll in Bisquick mix to coat. Press or roll dough 1/2 inch thick. Cut into rounds with 2 1/2-inch cutter. Place rounds 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Brush with orange juice; sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges begin to turn brown and tops are light golden brown. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the flour mix, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt, mixing on medium speed for 20 seconds.
• Add the shortening and mix on low speed until you have a coarse meal, about 1 minute.
• With the mixer still running, add the egg replacer, then 1/2 cup of the marmalade, then the rice milk. Mix until the dough is just combined. It will still be crumbly.
• Sprinkle your work surface, a rolling pin, and your hands with a little gluten-free flour mix. Turn out the dough onto the floured board, pat into a disk, and gently roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thick.
• Cut with a 2-inch floured biscuit cutter, gathering scraps and rerolling as necessary. Place 12 biscuits on each baking sheet. Top each with about 1 teaspoon of the remaining marmalade. Bake for 15 minutes, until the biscuits are lightly golden around the edges and the marmalade is bubbling. Let cool slightly before eating.
