This year was the first time I tried my hand in making hot cross buns.
I saw the on the Pioneer Woman’s website and boy, where they calling my name! 🙂
More like screaming: “ Make me! “
So I did.
I am so weak when it comes to homebaked breads and buns….
Aaaanyways, the dough is so easy to put together. You can bake the buns the same day or refrigerate and bake when you are ready. I did both.
You are asking, where is the frosting cross?
Well, I ditch it.
Yep.
The buns were so good spread with butter that I decided not to make the frosting. Besides, I made a frosting slathered cake for Easter ( post coming up ) so I really didn’t miss it.
I hope you will try Ree’s recipe. She has a picture-loaded tutorial on making these.
You will love it!

Hi Anna! These look delicious! I was at the bookstore yesterday and was previewing The Pioneer Woman's new cookery book, have you seen it? I've only been able to watch a couple of her shows. In a couple of weeks she'll be around my neck of the woods speaking and signing her book.

Hi Vanessa! I haven't seen the book yet, only the previews on the website. But I know it is going to be amazing! So lucky of you to have PW signing the book in your town. I hope you will go with your camera and take loads of photos! 🙂 Thank you for stopping by!

Oh, these are so glossy and gorgeous!! I think my family would prefer these without frosting...slathered with butter is the way to go 🙂 Can't wait to see your cake!!! xo
