Heathen dolt that I am, I forgot that Hot Cross Buns are made for Good Friday. I wouldn't have remembered except that a friend posted a picture of the hot cross buns she made.
So, I might have been a day late, but they tasted real good.
Are you a fan of Hot Cross Buns?
In Australia I saw Hot Cross Buns (but as I don´t like sweets much didn´t try them). I asked AI and it´s new but around Easter in some places you can get them here now, too. The world becomes a small place! Happy T-Day!
ReplyDeleteIt is a small world.
DeleteI had hot crossed buns as a kid and didn't like them. I wanted the top to be covered with frosting. I haven't had any sense so I can't answer your question. But you've made me think that next Good Friday I should make some and see what think. :) Happy T day. Enjoy the warmth. It's not going to be all that dry this week here though.
ReplyDeleteYou probably didn't like the glaced fruits, like the ones used in fruitcake. I use raisins though this time around I used craisins as the Eldest isn't fond of raisins though she will eat them in baked goods. There are chance of showers the rest of the week, but the days won't be washouts.
DeleteYes, I am a fan. Unfortunately we don't have them here. Perhaps I should be brave and try to make them one day...
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day,
Lisca
That's the spirit
DeleteI used to like hot cross buns more than I now do - perhaps the recipe has changed. I used to be a stickler for not eating them until Good Friday, but not this year.
ReplyDeleteI never followed the Lenten rule 🤣
DeleteI used to be....I wonder if I still am....LOL. 😂
ReplyDeleteC'mon up and I'll make a batch
DeleteI don't think i've ever had one... maybe as a child that i don't remember.... looks good though! Hugs! deb

DeleteI do like hot cross buns but didn't have any this year.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
There's always next year
DeleteI've never had them. I've only seen them on TV and blogs. Thanks for sharing yours and your tea with us for T this Tuesday, dear CJ.
ReplyDeleteHot Cross Buns are a nice treat
