Orange Rolls

April 6, 2016 by Bethany Sy

It’s Meghan from Cupcakes with Sprinkles! My favorite ‘special’ breakfast is cinnamon rolls and recently I saw a recipe for Orange Rolls and with the warmer weather we’ve been having these are a perfect, fresh, spring breakfast or treat:) They have just enough orange flavor with a touch of lemon. They are sweet, soft, gooey, best when warm, AND they have a crusty layer of sugar on the bottom. You will be in love. I promise!

    Is it safe for the eggs to sit out for an hour as the dough rises?

    These rolls look amazing. After looking at the ingredients I’m going to see if I can do a switch with the flour. I switched to oat flour about a year ago and absolutely love it. Thanks
