Phoenix (Orange) Cinnamon Buns
Recipe courtesy George Duran

Ingredients
5 oranges
10 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 (12-ounce) package refrigerated buttermilk biscuit dough
10 tablespoons milk

Instructions
Note: This recipe is for cooking over an open fire
outdoors.

Cut the top third off the oranges and scoop out all the pulp; reserve the tops for

this recipe and reserve the pulp for another use, if desired. Mix together the
brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. For each orange, flatten the dough for 2
biscuits and top them with 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar mixture. Roll the
biscuits up into a ball and place them into the oranges. (Note: The dough should
fill the orange about 2/3 of the way full, leaving room at the top for the bun to
expand. Add more or less dough according to the size of your orange.)

Add 2 tablespoons milk to each orange and put the tops back on. Wrap them
individually in 3 layers of foil. Put them into the glowing embers of the campfire
to cook for 7 to 10 minutes, turning halfway through the cooking time. Be sure to
protect your hands from the fire at all times.
