These Upside-Down Orange Biscuits are a delightful twist on classic Southern baking. A rich glaze of maple syrup, butter, and fresh orange zest pools at the bottom of the muffin tin, creating a sticky, aromatic caramelization. As the multigrain biscuits bake, they absorb the citrusy sweetness, resulting in a tender crumb with a glossy, flavorful top once inverted. Perfect for a cozy weekend breakfast or a unique side dish for holiday dinners, these biscuits bring a bright, home-style comfort to any table. The combination of earthy multigrain flour and bright citrus creates a balanced flavor profile that is both hearty and refreshing.
