Dissolve yeast in warm water in large bowl. Add orange peel,
orange juice, sugar, salt, egg, butter and 1 1/2 c of the flour. Mix
together. Stir in enough of the remaining flour to make a dough
easy to handle.
Turn dough out onto floured surface and knead 5 minutes and
dough is smooth and elastic. Cover; let rise in warm place until
double, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours (dough is ready if an indentation
remains when dough is touched).
Punch dough down and, on a lightly floured surface, roll into a
rectangle 15x9. Spread w/ 1 T butter and sprinkle w/ combined 2 T
sugar and 1 t cinnamon. Roll up, beginning at one of the long sides;
pinch edge of dough into roll to seal well; stretch to make roll even.
Cut roll into 15 slices about 1 inch wide.
Place slices slightly apart in a greased oblong baking pan, 13x9, or
in greased muffin cups. Cover and let rise until double, about 30
minutes. Bake in a 375 degree preheated oven until rolls are golden
brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
