Four morning buns come in each 8.4-ounce box, each one tucked into a paper cup and built from croissant-style laminated dough. Orange zest, cinnamon, brown sugar, and sweetened orange peel run through the layers, so the filling isn’t just in the center. During proofing, the dough softens, then bakes at 375°F for 14 to 16 minutes into a flaky shell with a layered, tender interior. Trader Joe’s uses the same laminated dough base found in its chocolate and almond croissants, which puts this pastry closer to a croissant than a bread-style cinnamon roll. It’s kosher certified and meant to be baked from frozen, then served warm after its overnight rise.
