Orange Sticky Buns
Filling
3/4 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons grated orange rind
Buns
1 envelope active dry yeast
1/4 cup very warm water
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
6 Tablespoons butter, melted
3 1/2 cups flour
2 Tablespoons butter, melted
Glaze
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
2 Tablespoons fresh orange juice
1/2 cup butter
Directions: |
- To prepare filling: In a small bowl, mix ¾ cup of sugar with orange rind; set aside.
- To prepare buns: In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Beat in ¼ cup sugar, salt, eggs, sour cream and 6 T. melted butter. Gradually add 2 cups flour; beating until dough forms.
- Transfer to a floured surface. Into dough, knead enough remaining flour in small amounts to make it smooth and elastic with small blisters on the surface. Place dough in a large greased bowl. Cover and let rise in warm place (80-85°) until double in size, about 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Punch dough down and turn out onto floured surface. Knead 15 times. Divide into 2 equal parts. Roll each part into a 12" circle. Brush circles with remaining butter. Sprinkle with orange-sugar mixture.
- Cut each circle into 12 pie-shape wedges. Starting at wide end, roll up wedges. Place point side down in greased 9x13" pan. Cover and let rise in warm place until almost double in size, about 1 hour.
- Bake, uncovered, 20 minutes- or until golden brown.
- While buns are in the oven, prepare glaze. In a medium saucepan, mix all ingredients. Boil 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Spoon over buns while they are still warm.
