Pre-Order now and get creative with Hot X Buns!
Hot cross buns are typically eaten hot, with a little butter on Good Friday. Our Bakers Maison buns contain raisins and delicious aromatic spices.
Just before cooking, a cross is drawn on the top. After baking, we add icing sugar to fill the famous cross!
Did you know?
Hot cross buns are nothing new, as they were eaten by the Saxons in honour of the goddess Eoste. On the other hand, the symbol has changed: the Saxons saw there the representation of the moon and its quarters, and the Christians there see the symbol of the crucifixion.
They can be found absolutely everywhere Australia, the UK, Ireland but you don't have to wait until Easter to eat them - with Bakers Maison, you can order them all year round!

INSTRUCTIONS
- Cut the hot cross buns into small chunks and spread on a tray. Place under a preheated grill (broiler) for 3 minutes, watching them closely so that they don’t burn.
- Cool, then blitz into breadcrumbs in a food processor. Set aside.
- Whisk the double cream until you have firm peaks.
- Whisk the ricotta, sour cream, condensed milk, vanilla and cinnamon together using a hand mixer. Make sure everything is well combined but don’t over mix.
- Fold in the whipped cream and half the breadcrumbs and transfer to a loaf tin.
- Spread the remaining breadcrumbs over the top. Cover and freeze for 5 hours or overnight.
- When ready to serve, take the ice cream out of the freezer for 20 minutes so that softens a little.
- Cut the hot cross buns in half and spread with a little butter toast in a preheated waffle maker until crisp and golden (or simply toast in a toaster).
- Place a scoop of the ice cream onto each toasted base and drizzle with caramel sauce. Add the hot cross bun lid and serve immediately!
