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.
