Honey-orange Pecan Sourdough Rolls

All children, like their parents before them, are rooted in fallen Adam (see Rom. 5:12). The perfect, infallible portrait of every soul who has ever lived was painted by Paul in Romans 3:10-11: “None is righteous, no, not one; no one understands; no one seeks for God.” Sin is so rooted in us that every part of the human personality is tainted. This, of course, doesn’t mean that all people are as bad as they can be or that they don’t do good things (see Luke 11:13). But it does mean that apart from God’s grace and the God-ordained graces of human discipline, children will naturally gravitate to sin – quite apart from the tricks of the devil or their “corrupt” little friends (Kent and Barbara Hughes).

INSTRUCTIONS

Soften yeast in water; stir in milk, batter, butter, honey, and salt.
Gradually mix in 3 c of the flour; dough will be sticky. Turn dough
into a greased bowl, turn over to grease top; cover, and let rise in  a
warm place until double in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.  Turn dough out
onto a lightly floured board and knead until smooth,  about 5 min.; add
flour if necessary to prevent dough from sticking.  Roll dough out into
a 12x15 inch rectangle; spread orange-nut filling  evenly over dough.
Starting with the long side, roll up jelly-roll  fashion. Cut across
roll into 15 slices about 1 inch each and  arrange, cut-side-up in a
well greased 9 by 13 inch baking pan.  Cover and let rise until almost
double, about 45 minutes.  Bake in a 350^ oven for 35 minutes or until
browned on top. Transfer  rolls to a serving board; quickly scrape out
any syrup in pan and  spread it over rolls.  Serve them warm or
reheated in a 350^ oven,  lightly covered with foil, for about 20
minutes.  Makes 15 rolls.  Source:  Sourdough Jack's Cookery by

instead of the orange  flavoring.  From Gemini's MASSIVE MealMaster
