Orange Glazed Biscuits, a sweet treat for breakfast

I pinned this recipe a while ago and when I revisited the steps I was sold when I saw orange icing was involved. I have what I would consider a couple unique staple breakfast recipes up my sleeve, my sausage cream cheese biscuits are one of them and I am always looking for new and different breakfast ideas to serve when we have company.

First Impression

I will never forget my first bite of these biscuits right out of the oven, with the orange glaze of course. They literally melt in your mouth. John took about a half dozen of these to work and shared with his team, they devoured them.

Recipe:

BISCUITS

• 1 16 oz Pillsbury biscuits
• 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoons orange zest

GLAZE

• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon orange juice
• 1 teaspoon orange zest

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 375°
2. Cut each biscuit in half and roll into a long rope
3. Tie into a knot and place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper
4. Brush tops of biscuits with butter, dip into sugar and sprinkle the orange zest on top
5. Bake for 8-10 minutes (without burning the sugar)
6. To make the glaze mix powdered sugar orange juice and orange zest. While biscuits are warm brush each liberally with the glaze
7. Serve warm

Biscuits for any Occasion

Find an excuse to make these, I promise you will make immediate friends. A couple ideas might include:

• Weekend breakfast with your coffee
• Christmas, Thanksgiving or any holiday morning
• Treats for the office
• Baby, engagement or wedding showers
