Marmalade Buns
"These are delicious! I made them last week with some orange marmalade from my pantry, and substituted 1/2 cup of the plain flour with whole wheat flour. I also made a white glaze when they were cooled down and they looked like the sweet rolls you buy at the bakery. I plan to try these with some other jams and jellies that I've made and need to use up. From "Preserving for All Seasons" by Anne Gardon."

Great sweet rolls! I used the optional orange blossom water and pecans. These were easy to make, and the results were very impressive. The rolls were huge, too! Thanks for posting; you helped me use up my big jar of marmalade.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I live in a small (but growing to be very large) town in Oklahoma. I am currently a student, studying library science. I like to cook and eat, play the piano and violin, and train and play with my two dogs. I don't have a single favorite cookbook, but of the ones I use, I like BHG the most. Their recipes are usually very good. I would say my passion is learning new things--and traveling to new places. I also enjoy writing fiction. Some of my pet peeves are: 99% of the drivers in Oklahoma; people who don't take good care of their pets; people with NO TASTE; intellectual psychobabble nonsense; boring people; the list goes on forever!
