2 eggs -- beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon orange rind -- grated
1/2 cup sugar
6 cups bread flour

Proof the yeast. Scald the milk, add butter, sugar and salt to it. When it is luke warm add the yeast
to it. Mix well, add about 2 cups of flour and beat well. Add eggs, orange juice and orange peel. Add
flour mixing well after each addition, until it pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead for about
10 minutes. Cover and let rise until doubled, punch dough down and if you like, let it rise again. Divide
dough into 3 balls, cover and let rest for 10 minutes. Make into braids or buns and rise once more. Bake
at 375* until done. You may frost your braids or buns with an orange icing and sprinkle some nuts on top.
I made 1 braid, 12 cinnamon buns and 12 butterhorns with this recipe.
