ONE A PENNY, 2 A PENNY , HOT CROSS BUNS...THIS IS THE BEST RECIPE FOR WHOLEWHEAT HOT CROSS BUNS..ENJOY THE PHOTOS OF MY 3 DAYS OF BAKING SO FAR THIS WEEK

WHOLEWHEAT DOUGH MADE WITH FRESH EGGS, DAIRY BUTTER, CANE SUGAR, YEAST, WATER, GROUND CLOVES, GROUND ALLSPICE AND GROUND NUTMEG. TOPPED WITH RAISINS, CHOPPED CANDIED LEMON AND ORANGE PEEL AND GRATED FRESH ORANGE AND LEMON PEEL.

USING A SHARP SERRATED KNIFE, CUT  SHALLOW CROSSES ACROSS THE BUNS BEFORE PROVING, (THE CUTS WILL GET DEEPER AS THE BUNS PROVE) THEN PIPE A MIX OF WATER, ALL PURPOSE FLOUR AND VANILLA OR ALMOND EXTRACT, THROUGH THE CUTS. BAKE IN A 400F OVEN FOR 20-25 MINS.



IMMEDIATELY AS THE BUNS COME OUT OF THE OVEN, BRUSH WITH A SIMPLE SYRUP MADE WITH  EQUAL SUGAR AND WATER SIMMERED WITH LEMON AND ORANGE PEELS ( I USE THE SYRUP FROM MAKING MY OWN CANDIED PEEL). THEN COOL ON A WIRE RACK



THESE ARE STICK SHAPED/HOT DOG ROLL SHAPED, AND DECORATED WITH PIPED WAVES.. EASIER TO HOLD FOR SMALLER HANDS


I CAN NEVER MAKE ENOUGH OF THESE WONDERFUL SPICED-FRUITED AND STICKY BUNS, I HAVE BEEN BAKING FOR 3 DAYS AND WILL PROBABLY MAKE ANOTHER BATCH ON THURSDAY.
You may use regular all purpose, or 50:50 wholewheat & all purpose; even a good GF flour blend will work well!
THE ONLY PLACE YOU WILL FIND THE RECIPE IN IN MY eBook


BAKING A NAME FOR YOURSELF  only available on

 You don't need a kindle reader as you can get a free viewer app when you buy the book.
Check  it out it is the 9th recipe in the book and the book is just $8

HAPPY SPRING AND HAPPY BAKING,
John Nigel Crook
