Ingredients

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

Directions

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.

Delicious!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These are wonderful! I work at a day camp during the summer, and we're always looking for alternatives to banana boats and... s'mores (too many marshmallows!). I made these last summer for the staff breakfast - they were incredibly easy to make and took virtually no time to cook up. Everyone raved about how tasty they were! I'm going to make them again this summer. :)Read more

good in the orange ,but tastes the same when you make it without the orange, thisy you don't waste orange and it's 5 times... faster. just make it without the orange.Read more

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this recipe for a Family Reunion at a campground in Utah. I thought I had made enough (30) but lo and behold...... everyone wanted more! I had to cook it longer (appx. 45 mins) I will make this throughout the Fall and Winter in our backyard Fire Pit.Read more
