Preparation
Step 1
1. Combine 2 cups of flour and the yeast; set aside
2. Combine milk (heated), butter (soft), sugar, 1 cup of the flour and salt. Mix in eggs alternate with more flour, this mixture needs to be warm when you add the flour/yeast mixture. Add the flour and yeast.
3. Using a spoon stir in orange peel (fine), orange juice and remaining flour (approx 2 cups). Knead in mixer for 7 minutes or until dough is smooth and elastic (starts to pull away from the sides).
4. Let rise in a warm place (total time to rise should be 1 hour) Put dough in a lightly greased bowl with cover on for 15 minutes, punch down, cover and leave to rise for another 15 minutes. Dough should feel active.
5. Meanwhile, lightly grease 2 baking sheets. Roll each portion of dough into a 12 by 7 inch rectangle. Cut each rectangle into twelve 7 inch strips. Tie each strip loosely in a knot. Arrange knots 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Cover; let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled, 30 minutes.
7. Bake in a 400 ̊F oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden. Immediately remove from baking sheets. Cool on wire racks. Drizzle with orange icing.
ICING:
In a bowl combine powdered sugar, orange peel and orange juice. Add more orange juice to reach drizzling consistency.
