Title: Hot Cross Buns 2
Categories: Breads, British, Fruits
Yield: 4 servings
1 kg Flour
2 Sachets dried yeast
1 pt Warm water
125 g Sugar

1 ts Ground cloves
1 ts Cinnamon
2 oz Peel

MMMMM---------------------------GLAZE--------------------------------
2 tb Sugar
2 tb Water
Mix half the flour with the salt and water. Place bowl in plastic bag
until batter has doubled in bulk.
Mix remaining flour with spices, sait, sugar and fruit. Stir in
risen batter, eggs and melted butter. Knead. Put to rise, which may
take a few hours because of the eggs and butter. (In fact, I started
the batter on Friday night, and put it in the fridge to rise. The
rest I did Saturday am.)
Divide into 24. Place on baking sheets WELL spaced out (like 8 to a
large sheet). Cut deep crosses on tops. Place in plastic bags to prove
again (about 3/4 hr).
Bake 15-20 minutes at 225 C.
Dissolve sugar in water to make glaze. Brush buns with this glaze
Cool 10 mins. Plaster with butter!
