Easy Orange Sweet Rolls

Easy Orange Sweet Rolls are just as easy as boiling water. Yes, these are semi-homemade so you don’t have to worry if you don’t know how to make bread from scratch. It’s the extra steps of adding cream, brown sugar and orange zest to the bottom of the pan that creates these ooey-gooey Orange Rolls.

Breakfast foods are some of my favorite things to eat. One of my go to’s is my Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits. My family loves them with sausage gravy, but they are equally as fabulous with Raspberry Butter. If you need a truly simple recipe I love popping German Pancakes in the oven. Pecan Bacon goes with anything and a little extra! If you’re looking for recipes that can borderline be a dessert, you’ve got to try my Chocolate Orange Pull Aparts.

How To Make Orange Sweet Rolls

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Lightly spray a 9×13 pan with cooking spray.
  • Pour in the heavy cream.
  • Sprinkle in the brown sugar.
  • Zest the complete orange over the top of the cream and sugar.
  • Cut orange in half and squeeze all of the juice over the cream mixture.
  • Gently mix with a fork if needed.
  • Open all orange roll containers and set aside the frosting tubs.
  • Starting on one end, line up 3 rolls at a slant evenly next to each other.
  • Be sure to place the seam side down so when they bake that loose end stays tucked in.
  • In the next row, offset 3 more rolls on their edge overlapping the first row slightly.
  • Repeat with remaining rolls going back and forth.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden brown and the center is baked through.
  • Immediately drizzle two of the frosting tubs evenly over the top.
  • Let it cool for 5 minutes then drizzle over the remaining tubs of frosting.
  • Cut into 10-12 servings and serve.
