BELLE OAKS INN PECAN ORANGE BREAD

Steps:

• 1. Spray a large Bundt pan liberally with non-stick spray. Set aside. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• 2. Pour sugar into a small bowl. Zest both oranges and add to sugar. Mix to combine. Reserve oranges to juice for glaze.
• 3. Melt butter. Pour a small amount of butter into the Bundt pan and spread 1/2 the pecans in the bottom.
• 4. Open the cans of biscuits. Taking one biscuit at a time, open each biscuit and insert 1 tsp of cream cheese into the center.
• 5. Press to seal.
• 6. Dip the biscuit in butter.
• 7. Then dip in sugar-orange zest mixture, coating the entire biscuit.
• 8. Stand biscuit in the Bundt pan on its side. Repeat with the remaining biscuits, creating a circle around the Bundt pan.
• 9. Pour remaining butter over the biscuits and sprinkle remaining pecans on top.
• 10. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 minutes or until biscuits are puffed and golden.
• 11. Remove from oven and turn the bread out from Bundt pan onto a serving platter.
• 12. Mix confectioners' sugar with the juice from the oranges to create a glaze. You may add a dash of orange extract if desired to intensify the orange flavor. Use as much juice as needed to create a glaze consistency you like.
• 13. Drizzle glaze over bread while still warm.
• 14. Best when served warm, but can also be served at room temperature. Reheat in the microwave for 30 seconds if desired.
