Ingredients:
100g of Strong White Flour and 75g of Plain Flour
7g of Yeast (Fast acting is better)
1 tsp of salt
50g of unsalted butter
75g of Caster Sugar
1 Egg
300 ml of milk
150g of sultanas
2 tsp of ground cinnamon
Step 1:
Add thee strong white flour to the bowl. Then put in the salt and the yeast, making sure they are on opposite sides of the bowl.
Step 2:
Once you have done that, add in the unsalted butter, caster sugar and egg.
Step 3:
Warm up the milk in a sauce pan, on low heat, until warm. Then add to the rest of the ingredients.
Step 4:
Gently mix together all of the ingredients with your hands, adding extra milk, until you have sticky, soft dough (like in the picture ‘Step 4’). Remember, you may not need all of the milk!
Step 5:
Once you have you sticky dough, add in your sultanas and cinnamon.

Step 6
Knead the mixture of around 5 minutes. Don’t worry if it is still wet! Put the mixture in a bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rise for an hour.
Step 7:
Once the dough has risen, take it out of the bowl and cut into 12 balls. (Try and make them all the same size. It will make the finished product look much better.) Roll them into balls and place them on a baking sheet.
Step 8:
Cover the buns again and leave the dough to rise for a second time. After an hour, they should have doubled in size.
Step 9:
Put your plain flour in a bowl and gradually add water, until you have a paste that can just about hold itself. (Beat it constantly)
Step 10:
Spoon the mixture into a piping bag and add the crosses to the buns. (Always make sure the mixture touches the baking tray after each bun. Shown in ‘Step 10’)
Step 11:
Put the buns into the oven for 25 minutes at 220C. (Or 200C, if fan assisted).
Step 12:
Enjoy your Hot Cross Buns warm with butter. Don’t forget to send us pictures of your buns via email ([email protected]) or tweet them with the hashtag #rcgrecipe.
