Amount Ingredient
2 cup Self-rising Flour
2 tbl grated Orange Peel (divided)
3/4 tsp Cinnamon (divided)
1/3 cup Sugar (divided)
1/3 cup Oil
1/2 tsp Vanilla
2/3 cup Milk
1/3 cup finely chopped Walnuts (divided)
1/3 cup (approximate) Powdered Sugar

Preheat oven to 425-F degrees.
With your measuring cup, place flour in a medium-large bowl, mix in about
half the orange peel, a pinch of the cinnamon, and all but a tablespoon or so of
Instructions:
Instructions: (Save that "spoonful of sugar" along with half the reserved orange peel, to mix with most of the walnuts to make a simple and delicious filling for the pinwheels.)

Pour oil to the one-third-cup mark of the measuring cup; add vanilla; fill cup to the brim with milk. Pour liquids into the dry ingredients all at once, and stir with a fork to moisten everything equally. Knead a few times to finish the process, then pat out into a rectangle. Mix the cinnamon and half the remaining orange peel with the reserved tablespoon of sugar and almost all the nuts (reserve 1 or 2 tablespoonfuls); sprinkle evenly over the dough. Roll up the dough and filling and cut across the roll, forming "pinwheel"

biscuits. (This dough is very soft, so if the pinwheels crush a little in the cutting and lose their shape, you may want to fan out their edges a bit - this makes them more attractive, and makes a home for the glaze, too.)

Bake for about 15 minutes. Stir up a simple glaze with a little powdered sugar, the reserved orange rind and nuts, and just enough milk to allow it to moisten the tops without becoming either too runny or too lumpy.
