Hot Cross Buns, Zero Cross Words

Happy Easter! These are hot cross buns, but not one cross word was spoken in their making. (Okay, maybe one, when the piping bag misbehaved.)

Going the sourdough route means a slower rise and a little tang under all that spice and fruit, which is exactly what you want torn open, still warm, with a pat of butter melting into the middle.

One a penny, two a penny, all of them gone by lunchtime.
