Summary

Ingredients

For the dough:

• Milk (warm) – 200 ml
• Wheat flour – 700 g
• Dry yeast – 2 teaspoon
• Chicken eggs – 2 pcs.
• Butter (soft) – 70 g
• Sugar – 100 g
• Salt – 1 teaspoon
• Vegetable oil – for working with dough

For filling:

• Orange jam – 70 g
• Cane sugar – 30-50 g
• Butter (melted) – 50 g

For glaze:

• Orange – 1 pc.
• Powdered sugar – 100 g
• Butter (melted) – 1 tablespoon

Instructions

1. In a small bowl or cup, combine warm milk, yeast, and a good pinch of sugar. Mix well and let stand for 5–7 minutes.
2. In another bowl, beat sugar and eggs together until combined. Add soft butter and beat again.
3. In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Pour the yeast mixture and egg mixture into the flour and knead until you have a soft dough. Cover with plastic film or a towel and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
4. Gently knead the dough to deflate it, then roll out into a rectangle on a lightly oiled surface. Brush with melted butter, leaving a 1–2 cm border on one edge. Spread orange jam evenly and sprinkle with sugar.
5. Starting from the opposite end, roll the dough tightly into a log (the unbuttered edge will help seal it). Cut into equal-sized pieces and place in a greased 28 cm round baking pan, spacing them a short distance apart.
6. Cover loosely and let rise for 10–20 minutes while you preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F). Bake for 30 minutes. Cool.
7. Optional: Make a glaze by mixing icing sugar with orange juice (adjust amount to your preferred consistency), finely grated orange zest, and butter. Brush over the cooled buns.
