The minute I saw these, I could almost smell them and wanted to make them!
Thanks to Cherrymenlove for posting this recipe.
You will need:
A largish rectangular tray 1inch deep.
For the dough:
250ml warm water
2 x sachets of dried yeast
1 tsp caster sugar
150g caster sugar
250ml warm milk
150g butter
2 tsp salt
900g plain flour
2 large eggs beaten
The filling:
75g melted butter
225g dark muscavado sugar
2 tbsp cinnamon
100g dried fruit/or nuts (optional)
The drizzle icing:
200g Icing sugar
1heaped tsp cinnamon
1 heaped tsp ground nutmeg
Add the yeast and tsp caster sugar to the warm water,stir and set aside, it should grow a bit! In a large bowl, add milk, melted butter, sugar, salt and eggs.Stir, then add the yeast mixture, then stir in the flour.
Knead well for 10 mins by hand, or use the dough hook in a mixer if you have one, this should take 5 mins.
Place the dough into a large bowl and cover, leave in a warm place for 90 mins or so until dough has doubled in size.
Prepare the filling 10 mins before dough is ready.
Turn out the dough onto the worktop, use a little flour to stop it sticking.
Roll out the dough into roughly large rectangle shape, slather with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar and fruit.
Start at top edge and roll down into a sausage shape, and cut into 12 rolls. Place into a buttered tray, face up.
Leave to prove a bit more for 15-30 mins, cover with a tea towel, I left mine on cooker top.
Pre heat oven to 180.
When they have grown, pop into the oven for 25 mins, and wait for the smell to waft through the house.....Tis amazing!
When they are golden brown, turn out onto a wired rack, and leave to cool. This is almost impossible as you will be picking bits off to taste test!
In a bowl mix the sifted icing sugar and nutmeg and cinnamon, add a little water at a time, you want a thickish drizzle consistency.
Drizzle the buns, I had a helper for this bit!

The buns are HUGE and need to be halved. Finally dust with some icing sugar, plate up,make some nice coffee, tear apart and enjoy!
Happy Christmas!! xx
