I just tried them! They are amazing!!! Although my dough seemed drier than yours in the video did. Could it be because I used mixed peels and chocolate instead of soaking the dried fruits in the water?
I am in love with them thought, the cream pat is soooo good in them!
So nice! Mine aren't strictly hot cross style, as I used part dried apples instead of peel, flavoured the custard with cinnamon roiboos tea, and used a honey glaze on top. But I can never follow a recipe! The dough was so silky and gorgeous after mixing (used the KA)
Baked these earlier and 30 minutes later its just one left out of 10. Absolutely delicious. I thought they will turn a disaster as the dough came apart after adding the fruit at the end. I think it was the added water that the fruit came with. I probably should have dried the fruit after draining it. Because the dough was very sticky and hard to work with I just baked them in a muffin tray. I just wished I had doubled the recipe as now I have to fight my girlfriend over the last one. Thank you for sharing the recipe!
Would black treacle work in place of molasses? Want to make these this weekend, they've been on my to-bake list for nearly two years!
I'm eyeing this recipe for a Spring 2023 bake, too :) Can't wait!
These turned out gorgeous, thanks for the recipe!
Can I keep the buns in the freezer after cutting them and defrost before baking?
Would the work with sourdough starter instead of dried yeast?

Do you think it would work if I shaped the buns and then proved them in the fridge overnight for morning baking?
