Preparation

Step 1

Preheat over to 450 degrees. Zest the orange and combine it with the juice and 2 Tbsp. of sugar.

Sift/whisk together the flour, 3 Tbsp. of sugar, and baking powder before cutting in the shortening. Add the milk and mix until just combined. Turn out onto a counter lightly floured with powdered sugar and shape into a rectangle 1/2 an inch thick.

Spread the melted butter and then the orange mixture over the dough before rolling it up like a cinnamon roll.

Place in a well-sprayed or greased pan. Cover and set aside for 10 minutes. Bake in a hot over for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.

Serve with butter, and if you really like a lot of orange, marmalade. Makes 12-14 servings.
