Servings 12 Hot Cross Buns

Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet Spelt Bread Mix (I used Laucke Flour )
  • 1/4 cup raw caster sugar
  • 100 g dried blueberries
  • 70 g white chocolate
  • Extra ingredients required are flour, water and honey

Instructions
 

  • Prep one packet of Spelt Flour Bread Mix as per instructions on the box with yeast provided and the addition of water required as noted on the box. Before you begin kneading the dough add in 1/3 cup of raw caster sugar.
  • Halfway through kneading bread mix add dried blueberries. Continue kneading process
  • Towards the end of kneading add chopped white chocolate (mine actually all melted in oops 🙊)
  • Once kneading is complete divide the dough into approx 12 pieces. I weighed each piece of dough out to around 80g- 90g each.
  • Rest dough as per instructions noted on the bread mix packet. Then proof as noted on bread packet instructions. I proofed in brownie pan with 12 pieces fitting perfectly.
  • After the dough has been proofed, mix together flour and water to create a thick paste. Use a piping bag, pipe hot cross bun lines on the dough.
  • Cook in a fan-forced 200 degree Celsius oven. Baking time around 30mins, till they are nice and golden looking.
  • Once baked remove from the oven and brush the tops with honey for the glaze.
  • Enjoy straight away or enjoy later! But trust me they are most delicious nice and warm with melted butter!

Notes

White Chocolate I used was by Well Naturally.
To prepare dough I use a KitchenAid and dough hook.
Hot Cross Buns can be frozen.
