Ingredients

for 2 servings

  • 4 large oranges
  • 4 unbaked cinnamon rolls with icing, store bought

Preparation

  1. Cut off the top third of an orange. Stand upright and use the knife to cut around the flesh, then scoop out with a spoon. Repeat with the remaining oranges. Reserve the flesh for fresh-squeezed orange juice, if desired.
  2. Place a cinnamon roll in each orange cup. Set upright in a medium cast iron skillet and cover the pan loosely with foil. Place the pan over a fire or grill and cook for 35–45 minutes, or until the cinnamon rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Remove the foil and spread the icing over the hot cinnamon rolls. Top with orange zest from a leftover rind, if desired.
  4. Enjoy!
