Hot Cross Buns No Abm Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the water and milk in a medium saucepan and warm over low heat until about 100 degrees F (but no more than 110 degrees). Remove from heat and sprinkle the yeast and a pinch of sugar and flour over the surface of the liquid. Set aside without stirring, until foamy and rising up the sides of the pan, about 30 minutes.
• Whisk the butter, egg yolk and vanilla into the yeast mixture.
• Whisk the flour, the remaining sugar, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger in a large bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour and stir in the yeast mixture with a wooden spoon to make a thick, shaggy, and slightly sticky dough. Stir in currants. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until soft and elastic, about 8 minutes. Shape into a ball.
• Brush the inside of a large bowl with butter. Put dough in bowl, turning to coat lightly with butter. Cover with plastic wrap. Let rise at room temperature until doubled in size, about 1 hour 30 minutes. (If you have a marker, trace a circle the size of the dough on the plastic, and note the time to help you keep track.)
• To form the rolls: Butter a 9 by 14-inch baking pan. Turn the dough out of the bowl and pat into a rectangle about 16 by 8 inches. Divide the dough into 12 equal portions, about 2 ounces each, with a pizza wheel or bench scraper. (If you don't have a scale, divide the dough in half lengthwise, then in half crosswise. Cut each of those four sections into 3 equal-sized rolls.)
• Tuck the edges of the dough under to make round rolls and place them seam-side down in the prepared pan, leaving a little space in between each roll. Cover the pan with buttered plastic wrap and set aside in a warm place until the rolls rise almost to the rim of the pan and have more than doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• Remove the plastic wrap and brush the tops of the buns with beaten egg. Bake rolls until golden brown and puffy, and an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of the rolls registers 190 degrees F, about 25 minutes.
• For the glaze: Stir together confectioners' sugar, milk, lemon zest and vanilla until smooth. Transfer icing to a zip bag or pastry bag, and make a small cut in the corner of the bag. Ice buns in a thick cross shape over the top of the warm buns.

Steps:

• Put the flour, both sugars, the salt, yeast, and spices into a large bowl and mix them all together very thoroughly.
• Stir in the raisins and zest.
• Add the water and the oil and mix a little. This cools the mixture a fraction.
• Add the egg and mix it all together very thoroughly using one hand. You should end up with a very sticky dough that is soft but not sloppy.
• Cover the bowl tightly with cling wrap and leave it at room temperature to rise overnight (at least 5 hours).
• When it is ready (and when you it suits you), add some extra flour so the dough is not quite so sticky. Gently break into 10-12 pieces, forming each into a ball and place in a greased 9x13 inch pan. Leave them for about an hour, or until the buns have doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Mix a bit of flour, water and sugar together to form a paste (proportions are not really important here). Use this paste to pipe crosses on the tops of the risen buns.
• Bake the buns for about 25 minutes. To check whether they are cooked, take one out and tap it on the bottom with a knuckle. It should sound hollow. If it doesn't, it needs to go back into the oven for a couple more minutes.

Steps:

• Put warm water, butter, skim milk powder, 1/4 cup sugar, salt, egg, egg white, flour, and yeast in bread maker and start on dough program.
• When 5 minutes of kneading are left, add currants and cinnamon. Leave in machine till double.
• Punch down on floured surface, cover, and let rest 10 minutes.
• Shape into 12 balls and place in a greased 9 x 12 inch pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place till double, about 35-40 minutes.
• Mix egg yolk and 2 tablespoons water. Brush on balls.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 20 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and cool on wire rack.
• To make crosses: mix together confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and milk. Place glaze in a piping bag or a sandwich bag with the corner snipped off; pipe a cross onto each roll.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water and let stand until dissolved, about 5 minutes. Place the flour, salt, sugar, cardamom, 1 1/4 cups of milk, butter and egg into the bread machine. Pour the yeast mixture on top. Close the lid and set the machine for the Dough setting. If using raisins, dried cherries or dried cranberries, add them at the beep.
• When the dough has finished, divide into 12 portions and shape into balls. Place them into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise until doubled in size, about 45 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove the plastic wrap from the rolls. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Make frosting by whisking together the confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup of milk and almond extract until smooth. When the buns are cool, drizzle frosting over them in a cross shape.

Steps:

• Combine the yeast, sugar and tepid milk in a bowl, cover with cling wrap.
• Stand in a warm place (approx 10 mins) until mixture foams and froths.
• Sift flour and spices into a large bowl.
• Rub in butter using a broad bladed knife then finish with fingertips.
• Toss the fruit through the flour, to coat the fruit.
• Stir in yeast/sugar/milk micture, the lightly beaten egg and mix to a sticky dough.
• Cover with cling wrap and stand in a warm place for 45-60 minutes until dough has doubled in size.
• Grease a square, deep sided cake pan (20-25cm)
• Knock down the dough and gently knead on a lightly floured surface for approximately 5 minutes until dough is smooth and silky.
• 1Cut dough in half, knead lightly, cut each half in half again and continue until you have 16 balls of dough.
• 1Place balls into greased cooking pan, cover with cling wrap and stand in a warm place for 10-15 minutes until the dough has risen to the top. 4 x 4 balls in each row
• To make the flour paste, combine the flour sugar and water to form a thick paste. Cover with cling wrap, or place into piping bag with medium sized round nozzle attached. I used a zip lock bag with a corner cut out.
• Either pipe or drizzle flour paste into 'cross' shape on top of each bun - keep piping fluid by doing four at a time, first in one direction then rotate the pan and complete the cross.
• Preheat oven to 200DegC
• When buns have risen bake for 20-25 minutes.
• Turn out onto tea towel then place wire rack on top, invert and cool (top side up).
• Mix caster sugar with boiling water and brush generously over each bun while still warm.

Steps:

• Measure ingredients into baking pan in order given or as directed on your breadmachine.
• Insert baking pan securely into baking unit,close lid.
• Select Dough setting.
• When complete, remove dough from pan and divide into 12 pieces.
• Shape into round, slightly flattened buns.
• Place 2" apart on greased baking sheets.
• Cover and let rise 30 minutes or until doubled.
• Combine (and brush on buns) 1 slightly beaten egg with 1 tbsp water.
• Slash top of bun to form a cross.
• Bake at 375 F degrees (190 C) for 15 - 18 minutes.
• Drizzle *cross* with glaze while warm.(Recipe shown in description).

• 4. Cut in to dough balls + leave to rise again for aprox 20 mins or till double in size.
