Does anyone have a recipe they would be willing to share?
Does anyone bake Hot Cross Buns?
The seasonal sweet, current & citron studded hot cross bun is said to traditionally eaten on Good Friday. Joy of Baking cites a superstition that if hot cross buns were baked on Good Friday, they would never become moldy & one bun would be saved as a good luck charm until the next year's bun was baked. I usually manage to eat one when available locally. Being a chronic yeast-dough challenged baker, never attempted my own. Anyone make these sweetly spiced, dried fruit buns? Any local bakeries feature them around Easter?
Caramel Apple Pastry.....
A few years ago at the Blue Bayou Restaraunt in Disneyland I had a dessert that was an apple with some kind of caramel in it, but it was wrapped up in a pastry. It was soooooo yummy, but I can't seem to find any kind of recipe on line that is similar. The apple was whole and I think (not sure) that the core was filled with a caramel sauce. I don't know what kind of dough it was wrapped in, but it was all baked together, it was so good. Any ideas?????
pastries!
a light, flaky almond croissant with a cup of coffee can make any afternoon a divine one... What is your pastry of choice, and at what time of day do you prefer to indulge?
