RECIPE STEPS
1
Fit the food processor main bowl and main blade. Add all the dry ingredients.
- 14 g instant yeast
- 64 g caster sugar
- 578 g bread flour
- 2 tsp cinnamon powder
- 2 tsp All Spice
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 192 g of dried raisins
- 1 zest orange

Press AUTO. While it is mixing, gradually pour the wet ingredients into the bowl. You will see the dough begin to form. After one minute, stop the food processor and check your dough. It should be smooth. Run for 1 more minute to knead if necessary.
- 350 ml warm milk
- 50 g unsalted butter
- 1 egg
3
Once your dough is smooth, transfer it to a bowl and cover with a tea towel. Leave it in a warm area to prove for 1 hour or until double in size.
4
When the dough is finished proving, transfer it to a floured surface. Gently fold the dough to remove air bubbles and form it into a ball. Using a dough scraper or spatula, divide the dough into 15 equal portions.
5
Shape each portion into a ball. Place each ball on a rectangular baking sheet, placing them right beside each other with their sides touching. Leave the dough on the baking tray, covered with a tea towel and leave to rest for 30 mins.
6
Preheat your oven on 180 degrees C before your buns finish rising.
7
In a bowl, create a paste using 75g of flour and 5 Tbsp water. Place the paste in a piping bag or re-sealable bag and cut a small hole in the corner to create a piping bag. Alternatively, you can use icing. Draw crosses on the buns.
