These rolls are super soft, and bursting with fresh orange flavor in every bite. Then, they are topped with a luscious cream cheese glaze that takes the citrus experience to the next level. These are the tried and true sweet rolls that will have everyone asking for the recipe.
This recipe is based on our famous homemade cinnamon roll recipe which has been tried and true by hundreds of thousands of people over a decade. They stay soft and fresh for up to five days, so you can enjoy them all week long, but don’t be surprised if you never get the chance to test that statement. They always get eaten before that!
Ingredient Notes
Warm Milk (100-110°F): Aim for a warm, bathwater-like feel. Whole or 2% milk works best, though milk alternatives can also work in a pinch. Use a thermometer if unsure.
Orange Juice: Bottled orange juice works just fine, or you can go with freshly squeezed since you already need a fresh orange for orange zest.
Instant Dry Yeast: No need to activate this yeast beforehand. If using active dry yeast, allow an extra 10–15 minutes of rising time.
Salted Butter: If using unsalted butter, add a pinch of salt. Ensure it’s softened and spreadable for easy mixing.
All-Purpose Flour: Bread flour can be substituted if desired for a slightly chewier texture. Add flour gradually until the dough is soft and pulls away from the bowl.
Orange Zest: Fresh orange zest is essential for that bold citrus flavor in the filling.
