What’s Easter without a warm, spiced hot cross bun? This hot cross buns with white chocolate and nut butter recipe is a delicious alternative to the usually-loaded-with-added-sugar-and-white-flour buns found in supermarkets. Our version comes packed with flavour and goodness from the dried fruit, nuts, oats and spices and is great with macadamia nut butter. Making your own hot cross buns ensures you avoid preservatives and dough improvers added to commercially produced bread products.
