Hot Cross Buns...

Happy Easter all my 365 friends... Batch one of the Hot Cross Buns were made this morning .. It always brings back happy memories of my childhood when I make bread and I think I should do it more often .. My Mum was the best bread maker .. and a fresh loaf of bread was made every day .. and nothing better than a slice of fresh bread and strawberry jam .. Easter never goes by with out about 3 batches of buns coming out of my oven.. going to have to spread it out this year as my daughter and her family are all away so requested theirs for when they return ..
Just off to go and visit @dide at her camping site .. so best take some buns to them ..

[eDorre]

They look yummy! Fun addition of the chicks!

[Diana]

They look fabulous Julia, we will be having them for breakfast too but they come fro Woolies ;-) Have a wonderful Easter.

[Liana Bull]

Now they look much more delicious than my feeble attempts. Last time I tried to make hot cross buns, I went into labour with my third child who was of course born on Good Friday! I still remember coming home with a new baby and finding very stale rock-hard buns in the cupboard! Never again I said!
Happy Easter - and well done with those buns.

Wow what wonderful hot cross buns! They look delicious! Very clever - I’m afraid I cheat and buy them! Happy Easter!

[Beryl Lloyd]

They do look delicious ,

[Carole Sandford]

They look delicious, I am afraid I cheat & buy them.

[Dianne]

They certainly went down a treat after dinner. Soft and light and fluffy - much more appealing than bought ones. You must’ve inherited those breadmaking genes!

[Joan Robillard]

Wonderful

[Lou Ann]

Sweet memories! They look so good and the tiny chicks are so sweet, too.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Great shot and they look really good.

[gloria jones]

Scrumptious shot

[sarah]

These look so yummy — I haven’t made these in years - need to I think

[Wendy]

Happy Easter to you as well! They look absolutely delicious and you have presented them perfectly.

[Marnie]

Oh yummo, they look soooooo much better than the shop ones.

[Desi]

Wow those look absolutely perfect and scrumptious. Bet they are way better than any store bought buns

[Walks @ 7]

Happy Easter and they do look so yummy. The little chicks are a sweet touch.

You BAKED the hot cross buns? I thought they only appeared in nursery rhymes! Did @dide like them? I'll bet so. Now I'm adding "homemade bread" to my list of expectations for my trip to New Zealand.

[Dianne]

@jyokota yep - my family loved them and @ julzmaioro is a great cook!

[julia]

@jyokota Yep I do my own Hot cross buns ... I would love to make you some bread .. Poor Dianne can't eat my buns but the family liked them ..

[Junko Y]

@julzmaioro -- Oh that would be tragic to have a cousin you see frequently who's a great baker and then not be able to enjoy the goods! I DO look forward to your baking. Cows, beaches, buns -- my list is getting longer.
