3. In another small bowl, whisk together the fresh orange juice, melted butter, and optional orange extract, if desired.
4. Take the refrigerated biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters.
5. Dip each piece of biscuit dough into the orange juice mixture, making sure they are thoroughly coated, and then roll them in the sugar mixture.
6. Arrange the sugar-coated biscuit pieces evenly in the prepared bundt pan.
7. Pour any remaining orange juice mixture over the top of the biscuit pieces.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 30-35 minutes, or until the bread has a delightful golden brown crust.
