1/4 cup warm water (100 -110 ) |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 large eggs, lightly beaten |
1 cup milk |
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
4 1/2 cups bread flour |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
1/4-1/2 cup bread flour |
1 cup chopped pecans |

Directions:
1. Make Honey Topping: stir together all the ingredients until smooth; set aside. 2. Make rolls: combine the first 3 ingredients in a 1-cup glass measuring cup; let stand 5 minutes. 3. Using a stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat butter at medium speed until creamy. 4. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar and salt, beating at medium speed until light and fluffy. 5. Add in eggs, milk, and lemon juice, beating until blended; stir in yeast mixture. 6. Combine 4 1/2 cups bread flour and nutmeg; gradually add to butter mixture, beating at low speed 2 minutes or until well blended. 7. Turn dough out onto a surface floured with about 1/4 cup bread flour; knead for 5 minutes, adding additional flour as needed. 8. Place dough in a lightly greased large bowl, turning to grease top of dough. 9. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until doubled in bulk. 10. Punch dough down; turn out onto a lightly floured surface; divide dough into half. 11. Divide1 dough half into 12 equal pieces, and shape each piece, rolling between hands into a 7-to8-inch long rope. 12. Wrap each rope into a coil, firmly pinching end to seal. 13. Place rolls in a lightly greased 10-inch round cake pan; repeat procedure with remaining dough half. 14. Drizzle Honey Topping evenly over each pan of rolls. 15. Let rise, covered, in a warm place (same as before), 1 hour or until doubled in size. 16. Top evenly with pecans. 17. Bake in a preheated 350° oven for 20-22 minutes or until rolls are lightly browned. 18. Make Fresh Orange Glaze: beat powdered sugar and butter on medium speed with an electric mixer until blended; add remaining ingredients; beat until smooth. 19. When rolls are done, cool for 2 minutes in pans; spoon Fresh Orange Glaze evenly over each pan of warm rolls; serve immediately. |
