Ingredients
  • 1 Tablespoon yeast
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1¼ cups warm milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 Tablespoons orange zest
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • approximately 5 cups flour
Sugar mixture
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons orange zest
Additional Dipping
  • 6 Tablespoons melted butter
Glaze
  • 3 Tablespoons orange juice
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon orange zest
Instructions
  1. Stir yeast, warm milk, oil, salt and sugar together and let stand 5 minutes to get the yeast activated.
  2. Mix in remaining ingredients and add as much flour as needed for soft dough. I find it easiest to add 4 cups and add an additional ¼ cup at a time until dough reaches a soft consistency.
  3. Knead 5 minutes.
  4. Cover and let rise until dough has doubled in size.
  5. Mix down.
  6. Spray a bundt pan with cooking spray.
  7. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and then dip into the melted butter and then in the orange sugar mixture.
  8. Place balls in prepared bundt pan. I do not use all the dough for this recipe. Fill bundt pan about half way up. (I usually have enough left over to plop about 4 orange rolls in the oven.)
  9. Cover with a dish cloth and allow to double in size.
  10. Preheat oven to 370 degrees F and bake for about 40 to 50 minutes.
Make the glaze while bread is baking.
  1. Add all glaze ingredients and mix well. Set aside.
Final Steps
  1. Remove from oven and allow to sit for about 3 minutes.
  2. Carefully invert pan and place monkey bread onto serving dish.
  3. Drizzle glaze over the top and enjoy!
