Directions
Sourdough Hot Cross Buns, I was asked for a sourdough version of hot cross buns This is the recipe I came up with, inspired by a non-sourdugh recipe in Jeffrey Hamelman’s Bread , I asked Donna for this recipe and as usual she came up trumps, when I made them used mixed spice rather than allspice, and I held back 1/4 cup of flour, as I think our flour in Scotland is a wee bit different This is definately one to make again, we love our hot x buns in our family especially sourdough ones Also very easy recipe to follow Well done Donna! Just a wee note to say that I have made this a lot since my first review and I now make it as a fruit loaf following the same recipe just bake it in a loaf tin as you would with a sourdough loaf and it is just as good
