Thermomix - Vanilla Glazed Hot Cross Buns

These are basically the Hot Cross Buns from the Every Day Cookbook (EDC), with a couple of tweaks:

I replaced the lemon peel with orange peel, as I think its a little sweeter and works better with the spices in the buns.  I also added vanilla to the glaze, because I have a jar of sugar that I add my vanilla beans to if a recipe calls for the seeds and not the pods - you could get the same flavour by adding the seeds from 1/4 vanilla bean or adding a little vanilla bean paste to the glaze ingredients.  And I didn't have any currants or other fruit on hand so I only put sultanas in.


I separated a third of the dough before adding the sultanas in order to make fruitless buns, as I don't like dried fruit much.

Its a little fiddly because it takes so long proving and has multiple proves, but was worth it.  They smell AMAZING while baking, the whole house smelled lovely.
