When I host a brunch I always look for a main dish that can be prepared a day ahead so I can spend the extra time preparing other recipes. If you like, use grapefruit or mixed fruit marmalade instead of the orange marmalade called for in the recipe.-Judy Wilson, Sun City West, Arizona

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 orange sweet rolls
3-4 eggs
1 1/2 c cheese, shredded
4-6 strips bacon, fried and drained, then chop
1/4 c onions, sauted or green onions, chopped
3/4 c milk

Steps:

  • 1. Fry bacon or cook in microwave to the crispness that you want.
  • 2. Saute onions in butter until translucent.
  • 3. Cube leftover sweet rolls with frosting and put in a 5x9" pan sprayed with butter flavored spray.

  • 8. Bake at 325 for 40 min. Let rest 10 minutes. Can be served with syrup.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges. Fresh oranges will give your Orange Breakfast Bake the best flavor. If you can't find fresh oranges, you can use frozen or canned oranges, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Grate the orange zest before juicing the oranges. This will help to release the orange's essential oils, which will give your Orange Breakfast Bake a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your Orange Breakfast Bake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the Orange Breakfast Bake in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that the Orange Breakfast Bake cooks evenly.
  • Serve the Orange Breakfast Bake warm. The Orange Breakfast Bake is best served warm, but it can also be served cold.

Conclusion:

The Orange Breakfast Bake is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weekend brunch. It is packed with fresh orange flavor, and it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a new breakfast recipe, give the Orange Breakfast Bake a try.
