• 1/2 cup sugar
• zest of 1 orange
• 2 refrigerated pie crusts (I use Pillsbury Pie Crust)
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 whole egg
• 2 tablespoons water
• honey

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• Place the cranberries, walnuts, sugar, and zest in a mixing bowl; mix until thoroughly combined.
• On a lightly floured surface roll out the pie crusts into two squares.
• Generously brush the pie crusts with the melted butter.
• Spread the cranberry filling on top of the pie crusts.
• Roll each pie crust into a log.
• Pinch the edges to seal.
• Combine the egg and water in a small bowl and beat until well blended.
• Brush each log with the egg mixture.
• Carefully cut each log into 10 slices.
• Place the slices, cut side up, on the prepared baking sheet, 1 inch apart.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Place pinwheels on a cooling rack.
• Spread a teaspoon, or more, of the honey on each pinwheel.
• Let cool before serving.
