Ingredients
  1. 60g salted butter, cubed, at room temperature
  2. 420g bread flour
  3. 1 tsp salt
  4. 50ml soft brown sugar
  5. 1 tsp mixed spices
  6. 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  7. 1 tsp mixed peel (optional)
  8. 10g Instant dry yeast
  9. 1 large egg, beaten
  10. 200ml warm water
  11. ½ cup raisins or sultanas (optional)
  12. 200g mature cheddar, grated
  13. 200g streaky bacon halved lengthways
  14. 60ml maple syrup, for brushing
  15. 30g fresh thyme sprigs, to garnish
Instructions
  1. Grease and line a 20 x 30cm deep roasting tray.
  2. Rub the butter into the flour and mix in salt, sugar, spices and mixed peel, if using. Add the yeast and mix.  Beat the egg and warm water together and add to the dough. Mix to form a soft dough then knead for 5-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Mix in the raisins, if using.
  3. Divide the dough into 12  pieces and roll into balls. Roll each ball in the grated cheddar cheese then wrap two slices of bacon loosely over the dough to form a cross. Place the balls in the tray, cover loosely with cling wrap and allow to proof until doubled in size.
  4. Preheat the oven to 180 °C (160 °C for fan-forced). Brush the bacon with the maple syrup and sprinkle the thyme leaves over the buns. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until golden brown and the buns make a hollow sound when tapped. Serve warm with loads of butter for spreading.
Notes
  1. TIP If you'd prefer the more traditional 'crosses' instead of the bacon, simply omit the bacon then mix together: 60ml (¼ cup) cake flour, 1 tbsp oil and 2 tbsp water. Place in a piping bag and pipe a cross on top of each bun before baking.

    The foto shows a larger quantity. How many times more the ingredients to get a half sheet pan of buns?
