| 1. Combine the yeast, sugar and tepid milk in a bowl, cover with cling wrap. | 2. Stand in a warm place (approx 10 mins) until mixture foams and froths. | 3. Sift flour and spices into a large bowl. | 4. Rub in butter using a broad bladed knife then finish with fingertips. | 5. Toss the fruit through the flour, to coat the fruit. | 6. Stir in yeast/sugar/milk micture, the lightly beaten egg and mix to a sticky dough. | 7. Cover with cling wrap and stand in a warm place for 45-60 minutes until dough has doubled in size. | 8. Grease a square, deep sided cake pan (20-25cm) | 9. Knock down the dough and gently knead on a lightly floured surface for approximately 5 minutes until dough is smooth and silky. | 10. 1Cut dough in half, knead lightly, cut each half in half again and continue until you have 16 balls of dough. | 11. 1Place balls into greased cooking pan, cover with cling wrap and stand in a warm place for 10-15 minutes until the dough has risen to the top. 4 x 4 balls in each row | 12. To make the flour paste, combine the flour sugar and water to form a thick paste. Cover with cling wrap, or place into piping bag with medium sized round nozzle attached. I used a zip lock bag with a corner cut out. | 13. Either pipe or drizzle flour paste into 'cross' shape on top of each bun - keep piping fluid by doing four at a time, first in one direction then rotate the pan and complete the cross. | 14. Preheat oven to 200DegC | 15. When buns have risen bake for 20-25 minutes. | 16. Turn out onto tea towel then place wire rack on top, invert and cool (top side up). | 17. Mix caster sugar with boiling water and brush generously over each bun while still warm. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
