Happy Easter everyone! For this recipe, I’m going off the book to make hot cross buns for eater tomorrow. I got the recipe from Sally’s Baking Addiction, which is an excellent site! Bloom the yeast with some warm milk and sugar until it’s bubbling. Soak the dried raisins, cherries, currants and apricots in some warm water to reconstitute them. Some coffee to keep me energized! I didn’t have ground allspice, so I just ground some whole ones. Mix the yeast mixture with the butter, brown sugar, 1 cup of flour, 2 eggs, and the spices Once it’s all combined, add the rest of the flour and the dried fruit. Knead the dough until its barely tacky Let proof until doubled in sizeCut into 14-16 pieces, roll, and shape into balls. Then proof again! Pipe a flour and water mixture on top of the proofed buns and then bake. Brush on an orange glaze post baking. These were fantastic! An absolute 10/10. Not very difficult to make either. I definitely recommend making these!
