Matzah Monday. Hot Cross Buns Friday.

Hot Cross Buns for Anzac Day

This year, it so happened that i was shoveling whale and foie gras into my gob while you were munching on bunny ears, or matza if you were less lucky. Upon my return from Nihon, I spotted the Easter edition of Gourmet Traveller sparkling in my pile of mail and figured that now i have more than a bar fridge and humidifier at my disposal, I would give these puppies a crack. My Apple and Cinnamon Hot Cross  Buns were awesome. The kneading and resting and expanding took their freaking time, but they only required 20 mins in the oven and after a quick slop of apple-lemon-cinnamon-syrup, all my Easters had come at once. And dad, as the cross part was made out of plain flour and water, I can also say i also had a nominal Pesach.
