A unique way to make Hot Cross Buns – Perfect for Easter.

Easter Hacks: aka Cheats Hot Cross Buns!

OH MY GOSH!!! Yes.. I need to shout! 😛 Last year I created my own free from hot cross bunswhich were amazing and if you have the time I’d highly recommend them BUT… they do take a long time AND wouldn’t you rather be doing something else like ~~eating~~ making chocolateor spending time with family and friends? Now you can! 😀 Oh my! I still can’t believe I didn’t think of this before!

You might have noticed (especially if you follow me on instagram) that I love pancakes (stay with me here), well, what I’ve done is combined an American style pancakewith a hot cross bun and the result is amazing! You can now have free-from hot cross buns without spending hours in the kitchen! You could even whip them up for breakfast! Or make them today and refrigerate…
