Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas Mark 6

In a large bowl, put in the flour, yeast, salt spice and currants.

Melt the butter, add to the milk, along with the beaten happy egg.

Slowly add this mixture to the dried ingredients in the bowl.

Knead until you have smooth dough. If too sticky add a little flour.

Knead till you have a smooth mixture.

Put in a bowl and cover with cling film – leave to rise in a warm place for an hour.

Shape the dough into 12 buns and place on a couple of greased baking trays, leaving some space between for them to rise again – leave for another 30/40mins

Meanwhile mix some on the strong flour with a little water – until you have a thick paste, use this to make your crosses on the top of the buns OR just make a cross on the top of them with sharp knife.

Bake in the oven for 15/20 mins

When cooled glaze with the maple walnut syrup
