Ingredients:
Cinnamon Roll Dough
1 Cup - Milk, warmed
1 TBSP - Instant Dry Yeast
2 TBSP - Sugar
1 Tsp - Salt
3 TBSP - Salted Butter, softened
1 - Large Egg
3 Cups - All Purpose Flour
Filling
3/4 Cup - Sugar
1/4 Cup - Salted Butter, softened
3 TBSP - Orange Zest
1 TBSP - Orange Juice
Glaze
5 Tsp - Milk
1 Cup - Powdered Sugar
1/2 Tsp - Lemon Extract
Preparation:
Dough
In a bowl of a stand up mixer, combine milk, yeast, sugar, salt, butter, and eggs.
Add in flour. Using a dough hook, turn the mixer on to a low speed.
Once the flour starts to incorporate into the dough, increase the speed to medium. Add more flour as necessary so that the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. The dough mixture should be soft and not stick to your hands.
Transfer the dough to a lightly greased mixing bowl. Cover with a towel and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour.
Filling
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Punch down the dough and roll into a 12x18" rectangle. Brush with melted butter.
In a small bowl, combine sugar, butter, orange zest, and orange juice.
Brush dough with mixture, then roll up tightly lengthwise for one long roll.
Cut the dough into 12 one-inch slices.
Place the slices onto a lightly greased 9×13 pan.
Cover and let rise 30 to 45 minutes.
Bake & Glaze
Bake the rolls for about 20 minutes, until just slightly brown on top.
While the rolls are baking, mix milk, powdered sugar, and lemon extract.
Frost the rolls while still warm.
Serve and enjoy!
