📝 Preparation Steps
1
Add yeast, warm milk and sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer. Stir and let sit for ⏱️ 5 minutes. The yeast should start to get foamy.
warm milk (115 degrees)1 cup
2
Using the paddle attachment add in the eggs and melted butter and stir to combine.With the mixer running on low add in the flour, salt and orange zest.
large eggs, room temperature2cup unsalted butter, melted1/2salt1 tsporange zest1 tsp
3
Switch to the dough hook and knead the dough for ⏱️ 6 minutes. The dough should start to form a ball. You can add up to 1/2 cup additional flour to keep the dough from sticking to the sides of the bowl too much.
4
Transfer the dough ball to a large greased bowl and cover with a dish towel. Allow the dough to rest until it has doubled (about an hour) A quicker way to speed up this process is to preheat the oven at 200 degrees and once it reaches that temperature turn off the oven and add in your dough. The dough should take about ⏱️ 30 minutes to double in size.
5
Once dough has doubled punch it down.Transfer the dough to a floured work surface. Roll out the dough to a 14 x 24 rectangle (it doesn't have to be perfect!)
6
Spread the cranberry sauce onto the dough leaving an inch or two of space along the edges.Starting at the long side roll up into a jelly roll.

Slice into 12 pieces.Place in a greased 9 x 13 pan.
8
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.While the oven preheats add in the rolls (this helps them to rest and rise)
9
When the oven reaches 350 set timer for ⏱️ 35-40 minutes or until they are golden brown and not doughy in the center.
