Banting Hot Cross Buns

Method:

1. Combine the yeast with the warm water and allow to activate for 5-10 mins.
2. In a separate mixing bowl combine greek yogurt, eggs and apple cider vinegar, and whisk until combined for approximately 1 minute.
3. Add Banting Hot Cross Bun Mix and baking powder to wet ingredients slowly, in three parts, alternating with the softened butter. Once combined, it should resemble a sticky dough.
4. Mix in the raisins and dried fruit peel (optional).
5. With slightly wet hands, shape dough into 12 buns (approx. 1 dessert spoon measure) and place on baking paper or a greased oven tray. Space the buns out, as they double in size.
6. Cover with a dishcloth and allow to rise for 1½ – 3 hours. Allowing the dough to rise is an important step to ensure the buns are soft.
7. Once the buns have doubled in size, preheat oven to 180°C and bake buns for 20 mins.
8. Combine egg whites and Keto Sweet, and whip to firm peaks
9. Remove the buns from the oven and allow to cool fully
10. Once cooled, pipe a cross on top of each bun with Keto Sweet mixture
11. Serve and enjoy!
