STEPS

1

Pour warmed milk into a stand mixer bowl and sprinkle yeast over it. Let stand to foam, 5–10 minutes.

2

Add egg, egg yolk, butter, honey, orange zest, and orange juice to yeast mixture. Beat to combine, then add 2 cups of flour to form wet dough.

3

Switch to dough hook and add remaining flour and salt. Beat until soft and elastic dough forms, 7–10 minutes.

4

Transfer dough to greased bowl and let rest until doubled in size, around 1 hour.

5

Mix filling ingredients until creamy: butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and orange zest.

6

Roll risen dough on floured surface into a 10x18-inch rectangle. Spread filling over dough, leaving a border.

7

Roll dough into a log and pinch the seam to seal it. Slice log into 12 equal rolls.

8

Place rolls in greased baking dish and let rise for 30–45 minutes until puffy.

9

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake for 22–25 minutes until golden.

10

11
