ORANGE SCROLLS
DOUGH
125 mls + 1 tablespoon warm buttermilk (1/2 cup + 1 tbls)
1 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast
1/4 cup sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons butter, soft
2 1/2 cups plain flour
1 heaped teaspoon bread improver, optional
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
finely grated rind 1 orange
FILLING
3 tablespoons butter, soft
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
finely grated rind 1 orange
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
place the buttermilk, egg, sugar, butter, rind, flour, salt, yeast and bread improver, in this order, (or as recommended for your bread machine) into bread machine. set machine to dough setting. if dough hasn't doubled in size when the machine has finished, just leave it in the machine until it has. mine took 1/2 hour longer.
ALTERNATIVELY... mix the buttermilk with a tablespoon of the sugar and the yeast together and leave for 5 minutes. place into bowl of electric mixer and add the rest of the sugar, egg, rind and butter and beat until smooth.
add the flour and mix till a dough forms. change beaters to dough hook and knead for 10 minutes. cover bowl with plastic, place in a warm spot and let dough rise until doubled in size.
when ready, punch dough down and turn onto a floured board. knead a couple of times.
roll dough into a 30 x 20 cm. (12 x 8 inch) rectangle.
FOR THE FILLING..place the sugars and orange rind into a bowl and using your fingers rub it together. add the cinnamon and stir to combine.
spread the butter over the dough then sprinkle with the sugar mix. press lightly into the dough.
roll the dough into a tight log, starting on the long side,
and cut into 12 equal pieces. place into a large baking dish and cover with a teatowel. let rise until doubled.
heat oven to 180 c (350f) and cook for 15- 20 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
remove from oven and glaze while warm.
GLAZE
