  • Made 3x in two weeks...Seriously good....

    Made 3x in two weeks...Seriously good.
    Using x4 tsp yeast. Adding 50g warm water to dried fruit, and adding to the dough mixture. Sub sultanas for mixed peel.
    Allowed to double for first rise and almost double again for second rise.
    Bake in oven with hot water on bottom shelf to keep dough soft.
    Using milk in icing for whiteness and best texture.

  • YUM......

    Submitted by Sharon.thermomix on 5. May 2019 - 16:08.

    YUM...
    Did with just x4 tsp yeast, kneaded a little less and added a touch more water as my dough was quite "tight".
    Will rinse fruit in water next time before adding to get even distribution.
    Cooked a loaf pan and some Texas muffin sizes..
    Icing great too..

    I love this recipe. A favorite of hubbies. So easy, I just do each step whenever I happen to be in the kitchen. 😂 So nice and soft. I use 200g of mixed fruit. I do find my fruit sinks to the bottom. Any ideas of how to prevent this?

    Very very tasty. Absolutely perfect recipe. I used milk instead of water in the icing, and it was fine. I also left the fruit out, as we'd rather have without, and it was just right. Perfect soft texture of the bread. Thank you for sharing! I made it in two long shape loaves.

    I just ate my first slice. YUMMO This is a definite make again. Do you have any tips on freezing? Can I freeze the icing and the second bun separately and then spread it once thawed out?

    Absolutely fantastic recipe. I wonder if a bit of salt might make it just that little bit better? I didn't use Copha but used butter instead...mixing it for the 5 mins made it fluffy and light....I pressed on coconut too. Will make again....and again

    A winner here with kids & friends after school! No more store bought Boston Bun for this household. I was sceptical about copha in the icing but it was delicious!

    I made as 12x50g finger buns in the Kmart silicon mini loaf tin & a 600g bun.

    This was as good, if not better than, most bakery Boston buns! Seriously delicious! The icing was just like bakery icing, even though it separated a bit (I'm going to try using milk instead of water next time) it was still outrageously yummy!
