Top Mobile Recipes: ORANGE GLAZED CINNAMON ROLLS

The dough used for these cinnamon rolls is similar to my yesterday's post on Upside Down Honey Glazed Rolls. Here, I made only 6 of them [looks quite gigantic for a cinnamon roll] cos’ I wanted to use the new muffin pan which I bought from Giant Hypermarket for only RM5.00. It is very reasonably priced for a non-stick baking pan, worth it. You can actually stick to making 9 or 16 pieces and bake them it a square baking pan.

This dough is pliable, easy to handle and shape. These rolls are soft, moist, fluffy, fine texture, aromatic and sweet. The orange glazed is not intense at all, hardly noticeable in looks and taste wise. Overall, it isn't that sweet as the basic dough only uses 1 tablespoon sugar.

Ingredients for Dough

[makes 9 – 7 inch square pan]

250 gm bread flour

50 gm plain flour

2 tbsp milk powder

1 tbsp castor sugar

½-1 tsp salt

1 small egg

1 ½ tsp instant yeast

130-140 ml cold water

30 gm butter

Cinnamon Sugar Filling

60 gm melted butter

60 gm brown sugar

2 tsp cinnamon powder

Mix brown sugar with cinnamon powder. Set aside.

Orange Glaze [mix together]

60 gm icing sugar - sifted

1 tbsp fresh orange juice

Knead all the ingredients [except butter] into a soft dough. Add in butter and continue to knead until soft, smooth and elastic. Shape into a ball, cover to proof for about 20 minutes.
Punch down, roll into a rectangle [15” x 10’], spread melted butter evenly over dough and sprinkle cinnamon sugar filling on top of the buttered area or you can divide into 2 portions.
Roll up the dough into a log, then cut into equal portions.
Invert cut dough and place them evenly on a greased baking pan or muffin pan. Leave to proof for 40-45 minutes or until double in size.
Glaze with beaten egg. Bake in preheated oven at 180 degrees C for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and leave to cool.
Pipe or drizzle orange glaze on top of rolls. Serve.
