@kimlockhartga I’ve been to Britain a couple times and love hot cross buns.

@kimlockhartga Question: do you have a decent recipe for making them? They're utterly unavailable here in Santiago, at least in my area.

@adriano I do not, but the Brits would be the best source, since they actually eat them. I don't know anyone who has had them in my country.

@kimlockhartga @adriano Here you go. https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/mary_berrys_hot_cross_65003

If you’d prefer a sourdough one or a vegan recipe let me know.

Mary Berry's going to be so proud that you made your own hot cross buns this Easter. Lucky thing her recipe is completely foolproof.

@arratoon @adriano Mary Berry recipes are dependable.

@kimlockhartga @arratoon thank you both very, very much!

@adriano @kimlockhartga You’re welcome. Let us know how they turn out. One tip: soak the raisins in tea/rum/orange juice overnight so they’re extra juicy when you add them to the mix.
