    Another mix of white/spelt loaf. It turned out rather well.

    I baked hot cross buns yesterday for my Dad's birthday today :) I didn't have any apricot jam to glaze them with so they don't look at all glossy

    I must try and make some myself. I saw the price in the supermarket and thought I must be able to make them? You have answered my question.
