Ingredients

Scale

Florida Orange Rolls

  • ½ cup Florida Orange Juice Marmalade
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • Refrigerated dough (enough to roll out into a long rectangle)
  • ½ tsp kosher salt

Florida Orange Glaze

  • ¼ cup Florida Orange Juice
  • 1 lb powdered sugar
  • 3 tbsp melted butter
  • ¼ cup milk
  • A dash of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the dough: Roll out the refrigerated dough into a long rectangle on a lightly floured surface to ensure easy rolling without sticking.
  2. Spread marmalade: Evenly spread ½ cup of Florida Orange Juice Marmalade over the entire surface of the dough, adding a bright citrus flavor base for the rolls.
  3. Add filling: Pour ½ cup melted butter over the marmalade-covered dough, then sprinkle 1 cup brown sugar evenly on top. Finally, sprinkle ½ teaspoon kosher salt for balanced flavor.
  4. Roll the dough: Starting at the long side farthest from you, carefully roll the dough tightly toward you, ensuring a snug roll. Pinch the edges to seal and prevent filling leakage.
  5. Slice rolls: Cut the rolled dough into 1 to 1 ½ inch thick slices, creating individual rolls. Place these rolls into buttered baking pans with a bit of space for rising.
  6. Let rolls rise: Allow the rolls to rise in the pan for at least 20 minutes to become fluffy and airy before baking.
  7. Preheat oven: During the rising time, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
  8. Bake rolls: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for 15 to 18 minutes until the tops are golden brown but not overly browned, ensuring a soft and tender interior.
  9. Make the glaze: While the rolls bake, combine ¼ cup Florida Orange Juice, 1 lb powdered sugar, 3 tablespoons melted butter, ¼ cup milk, and a dash of salt in a bowl. Whisk thoroughly until smooth to create the Florida Orange Glaze.
  10. Glaze and serve: Immediately after removing the baked rolls from the oven, drizzle the Florida Orange Glaze over the warm rolls. Serve them warm or at room temperature for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • To achieve a more pourable glaze consistency, gradually add additional Florida Orange Juice until desired texture is reached.
  • For an even richer flavor, use freshly squeezed Florida orange juice in both the marmalade and glaze.
  • Make sure not to overbake the rolls to keep them soft and tender inside.
  • Butter the baking pan generously to prevent sticking and to add flavor to the bottom crust.
