Ingredients
- 175g Plain flour(2 cups)
- 175g Wheat flour(2 cups)
- 2tsp baking powder
- 150g butter
- 125g caster sugar
- 50g cranberriesdried (I used orange flavoured)
- 1 eggbeaten
- 1tbsp milk
- 4 – 5tbsp jammixed fruit
Instructions
- The original recipe used golden caster sugar and raspberry jam. I have used white sugar and mixed fruit jam instead. Preheat oven to 190 oC/ 375oF 10 minutes before baking. Lightly oil a baking sheet.Sift the flours along with the baking powder into a bowl.Cut the butter into small pieces. Rub the butter into the flours untill it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.Stir in the sugar and cranberries.Stir in the beaten egg and milk.Mix to form a firm dough. Divide the mixture into 12 and roll into balls.Place the dough balls on the baking tray, leaving enough space for expansion. Press the thumb into the centre of each ball making a small hollow. Spoon a little jam in each hollow. Pinch lightly to seal the tops. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on wire rack.
- Jammy Buns were delicious and turned out to be good for a first attempt. You have to excuse a little rocky shape for my crisp buns since my little one helped me do it. He was down with a severe bout of Dysentry and I had to entertain him!!
