Hot cross bun recipe?

Cooking Discussions Baking, Sweets

I’ve bought some good babkas at Breads Bakery and Zabar’s in NYC. Unfortunately, one person in my household doesn’t like it, so I’ve stopped buying babka, and won’t bother making one since it won’t be appreciated. We were given a homemade babka at Xmas this year, and about half was eaten, then it sat in the fridge for 2 weeks before I cleaned out the fridge. :roll_eyes:

The Chocolate-dipped Easter Bread (chocolate tsoureki) is already a thing in its own right.

The famous one is made at Terkenlis in Thessaloniki, and Greek bakeries in Canada also make it.

If anyone has stale hot cross buns , here’s an idea:

There’s a paywall, took a screenshot of the ingredients, as a
Bread pudding method isn’t exactly rocket science

That recipe makes me want to create some stale buns just so I can try it :slight_smile:

(They say in the intro “make food go further”, but one guy I knew could throw a bun pretty hard)
