in Christianity these roles are usually
eaten on Good Friday hi I’m Rebecca
Brayton and welcome to watchmojo.com and
today I’ll be showing you a recipe for
an Easter treat hot cross buns for this
recipe you’ll need four cups of
all-purpose flour 1/3 of a cup of sugar
1 package of active dry yeast 1 and a
quarter teaspoons of ground cinnamon 1/2
a teaspoon of salt one cup of fat-free
milk 1/4 cup of butter 2 eggs and
finally 3/4 of a cup of raisins combine
2 cups of the flour the sugar salt yeast
and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl
heat the milk and butter in a saucepan
make sure the milk doesn’t boil and
you’ll know it’s done when the butter is
completely melted add the milk and
butter to your dry ingredients and beat
until just moistened
now add the two eggs and beat until
smooth add the raisins and enough of the
remaining flour to form a soft dough
turn your dough out onto a floured
surface and knead until it’s smooth and
elastic which should take about six to
eight minutes spray a bowl with nonstick
cooking spray and then place your dough
in the bowl turning it once to cook now
cover and let it rise in a warm place
until the size of the dough has doubled
which should take about an hour if you
notice after the hour that the dough
hasn’t doubled in size the next time you
use this recipe you’ll have to proof the
yeast based on the directions on the
package once the dough has risen punch
it down and turn it again onto a lightly
floured surface divide the dough into 18
pieces and shape each piece into a ball
place the rolls in two 9-inch round pans
that have been coated with nonstick
cooking spray using a sharp knife cut a
cross in the top of each roll cover and
let rise in a warm place until doubled
again which should take around 30
minutes once the rolls have risen again
beat together one egg yolk and two
tablespoons of cold water and brush the
tops of the buns with your mixture
bacon a 375 degree oven for 18 to 22
minutes or until golden brown remove the
buns from the pans and place on wire
racks to cool while you’re waiting for
your rolls to cool you can make the
icing for this you’ll need a cup and a
half of icing sugar a quarter teaspoon
of grated orange peel and four teaspoons
of orange juice for some zing a icing
combine these ingredients when the buns
are completely cooled pipe the crosses
onto the top for this I’m going to use a
ziplock bag that I’ve cut a small hole
in the corner
there are some superstitions surrounding
Hot Cross Buns for example if you share
your bun with a friend it will ensure
your friendship for the coming year
