Ingredients

Hot cross buns pudding

Method

1.Preheat the oven to 175°C. Cut each bun into three even slices, and butter. Arrange slices in a large, lined loaf tin or similar.
2.Whisk eggs, cream, sugar and spice, then pour over the buns. Allow to rest and soak up the cream for at least 20 minutes.
3.Drizzle over the honey and cover loosely with foil. Bake for 20 minutes, then remove the foil and cook for a further 20 minutes or until golden and the custard has set in the centre.
4.Dust with icing sugar and serve with yoghurt.

Try hot cross bun French toast. Slice buns in half, then dip into a mixture of beaten egg with a dash of milk. Fry gently in a little butter until golden, then top with bacon and a drizzle of honey.
