ORANGE BISCUITS



Orange Biscuits image

In November of 2002 I had surgery. I had a friend make these for me for Thanksgiving. They were about the only thing I could handle. These are so delish!! They are warm, sweet, buttery and gooey!! Can be eaten warm with ice cream!!

Provided by Ashley Muller

Categories     Fruit Breakfast

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pkg grands flakey layers butter tastin' biscuits
1 c butter
2 c sugar
2 oranges, juiced & zested

Steps:

  • 1. Spray a 9x13 pan with pam. Place all but 1 (you can add it if you want to but I like uniformity) biscuit in pan.
  • 2. In a medium microwavable dish, melt butter. Juice and zest both oranges.
  • 3. To the melted butter, add the sugar, juice and zest. Stir well and pour over the top of the biscuits. The biscuits will float a little but that is okay.
  • 4. Bake at 375* for 25-30 minutes. The tops should be nice and golden and the bottom of the biscuits should soak up the liquid. There should not be any raw dough on the bottom of the biscuits.

Tips:

  • Choose the right oranges: Use navel oranges for a sweeter flavor and fewer seeds. If you use other varieties, taste-test the juice before adding it to the batter to adjust the sweetness level.
  • Zest the oranges finely: This will help release the citrusy flavors and aromas into the biscuits.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough biscuits. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the biscuits rise evenly and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven: This will help them rise quickly and develop a golden brown crust.
  • Serve the biscuits warm: Orange biscuits are best enjoyed freshly baked and warm out of the oven. You can also store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Orange biscuits are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their zesty orange flavor and fluffy texture, these biscuits are sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast, snack, or dessert, give orange biscuits a try!
