Orange Sticky Buns Recipes

Steps:

• Stir butter and 1 teaspoon sugar into the hot milk until butter is melted. When mixture is lukewarm, stir in yeast and set aside for 5 minutes.
• When mixture is creamy, transfer to a large mixing bowl. Mix in 2 cups of bread flour. Add 1/2 cup sugar, eggs, orange juice, orange zest, and salt and beat until combined. Add remaining flour, mixing well after each addition, until it pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
• Knead for about 10 minutes. Transfer dough to a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. If time permits, you can punch dough down, cover it, and let it rise again.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured work surface. Cut dough into 3 balls, cover with plastic wrap, and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease two baking sheets or line with parchment paper.
• Shape each piece of dough into braided loaves or buns; place on baking sheets. Let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
• Bake until rolls or loaves are golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes for individual buns, about 20 minutes for braids. Frost rolls, if desired (see Cook's Note) or sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, and cook until combined. Remove from heat. Stir in honey, whipping cream, water, orange peel, orange juice and seeds from vanilla bean. Cool 30 minutes. Pour mixture in ungreased 13x9x2-inch pan. Scatter pecan halves over top.
• Roll out one loaf of dough into rectangle shape about 14 inches by 6 inches. In small bowl, mix 1/4 cup each of brown sugar and granulated sugar, the cinnamon and salt. Spread half of mixture over dough. Roll dough tightly, and pinch seams closed. Using serrated knife, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Place rolls cut side down in pan. Repeat with second loaf remaining sugar mixture. Cover pan of rolls with plastic wrap; refrigerate overnight.
• Remove from refrigerator and let sit 30 minutes. Heat oven to 350°F. Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Cool in pan 20 minutes. Cover pan with platter, and carefully flip over.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400.
• In small bowl, combine margarine, 1 tablespoon chopped pecans, orange zest and honey; mix well. Sprinkle remaining 2 tablespoons chopped pecans in bottom of 8 or 9 in square baking pan.
• Separate dough into ten biscuits.
• Separate each biscuit into 2 layers.
• Spread top of 10 biscuit halves with 1 teaspoon of orange honey mixture.
• Top each with remaining biscuit halves and press together to form 10 filled biscuits. Seal edges.
• In a gentle manner, pull then twist each biscuit with your hands about 4-5 times to form 3 1/2 inch twisted rope (kind of like wringing out wet clothes but in a gentle way). Once this is done, wrap the rope around your finger and place formed rolls in baking pan.
• In a small saucepan, combine sugar, orange juice and vanilla.
• Cook over high hear until sugar is melted and syrup begins to boil, stirring constantly. Spoon over rolls.
• Bake about 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Steps:

• In small bowl, stir together sugar, pudding mix (dry), butter, 1 tablespoon of the orange peel and the orange juice; set aside.
• In medium bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water; stir in Bisquick mix and remaining 1 tablespoon orange peel until soft dough forms. On surface generously dusted with Bisquick mix, gently roll dough in Bisquick mix to coat. Shape into ball; knead about 20 times or until smooth. If dough is too sticky, sprinkle with additional Bisquick mix (up to 1/4 cup).
• Roll or pat dough into 15x9-inch rectangle. Spread 3/4 of the pudding mixture over dough. Beginning at 15-inch side, roll up dough tightly. Pinch edge of dough into roll to seal. Cut into 9 slices.
• In ungreased 9-inch square pan, spread remaining pudding mixture evenly; sprinkle evenly with almonds. Place dough slices slightly apart on mixture. Cover; let rise in warm place (such as on cooling rack placed over bowl of warm water) 25 to 30 minutes or until double in size.
• Heat oven to 375°F. Bake uncovered 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately place heatproof serving plate upside down onto pan; turn plate and pan over. Leave pan over buns 1 minute; remove pan. Serve buns while warm.
