Step 1

Put the yeast into the bread machine, followed by the flour, then the remaining ingredients, apart from the mixed fruit.

Step 2

In the Panasonic bread machine use setting 17 which is the dough setting which automatically adds the mixed fruit. Put the fruit in the dispenser.

Step 3

If you don’t have this setting on your bread machine. Then make the dough without the fruit. When it’s ready lay it on a floured surface, flatten out a bit, sprinkle the fruit over it. Fold the dough over and knead for a couple of minutes till the fruit is evenly spread through the dough.

Step 4

Split the dough into 12 even pieces and then roll into balls.

Step 5

Place them on a baking tray lined with baking parchment or a silicon sheet. Cover with a damp towel and leave for about 45 minutes till they’re risen. They need to be plump and soft to the touch.

Step 6

Make the crosses by mixing 25g flour with enough water to get a fairly thick paste. Put this into a freezer bag, squishing in all down to one corner. Cut off the corner of the bag, then pipe the crosses onto the buns.

Step 7

Then brush with milk and put them in an oven at 200 degrees c or a fan oven at 180 degrees c and bake for about 20 minutes. Keep an eye on them you don’t want them overcooked.

Step 8

When they’re ready take them out of the oven and brush with maple syrup.
