Biscuit Bliss 2004 by James Villas
List of Ingredients
Glaze:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 tablespoon finely grated orange rind
Biscuits:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup whole milk
Filling:
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
Recipe
1. Grease an 8-inch square baking pan. In a small, heavy saucepan, bring the glaze ingredients to a boil, spoon the mixture into the prepared pan so it completely covers the bottom, and set aside.
2. Preheat the oven to 450°F.
3. To make the biscuits, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl and make a well in the center. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the oil and milk till well blended, pour into the well, and stir just till a soft dough forms. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and roll into an 18 x 10-inch rectangle.
4. In a small mixing bowl, mix together the filling ingredients, then sprinkle evenly over the rectangle. Starting from the short side, roll up the rectangle jelly-roll style into an 18-inch-long log, slice into 9 biscuits 2 inches thick, arrange the biscuits cut side down in 3 rows in the glazed pan, and bake till puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes.
5. Invert the pan immediately onto a large platter so the glaze runs down over the biscuits and serve hot.
Makes 9 biscuits.
