FRUIT BUNS

Combine the Bread Mix, salt, dry yeast, sugar, egg subsitute, cinnamon, mixed spice and dried fruit together.

Add the oil and warm water then mix together for 2 minutes using electric beaters to form a sticky dough.

Dust the work surface well with Bread Mix, place the dough on the surface and sprinkle extra bread mix onto the surface.

Using hands dusted with plenty of Bread Mix, lightly roll the dough into a long sausage shape and cut into 10 equal sections.

Use your hands dusted with bread mix to round each bun and place on a baking tray, leaving approximately 2cm between each bun.

Use a pastry brush to moisten the top of each bun and remove any dry loose flour mix from the top. This helps to avoid a crust forming and ensures the buns have a nice smooth surface.

Cover loosely with a cling film and leave the buns in a warm place to rise until they have doubled in size – approximately 30 minutes.

While the buns are rising preheat the oven to 200 degrees.

Bake the risen buns in the oven for 20 minutes.

Allow to cool on a rack.
