You need to update the recipe to include the addition of spice in it, made this without reading reviews and was thinking not much spice and had them and they are so missing the spice flavour.Read these reviews AFTER to then see you've listened to reviews and adjusted, but you should update the recipe with those amounts too.

Waste of ingredients, really really tasteless, won't use this recipe again. I didn't want to give even 1 star but couldn't submit review without grading

So I followed this recipe to a T, and it did not work the dough came out hard not soft, so now I should of just gone with my gut & added more milk cause 1 1/4 cup of milk sounded wrong to me next time I will add 1 3/4 cup of milk witch will give me the dough I need & it needs more spice, I'm so not happy with this recipe I just wasted a lot of ingredients.

Simple and easy to follow, the buns came out soft and pillowy with just the right amount of spice. I didn't have Sultanas or Raisins to put in so subbed with dried cranberries which are a fave now in our household.

The tablespoon of spice worked well. I also added some nutmeg as it just tickled the edge of yumminess!! Really easy to make. It didn't prove well the first round but second went well and overall results were fabulous!!!
Dough Crumble Edmonds Active Yeast into a small bowl, add the first measure of Edmonds Standard Grade Flour and Chelsea White Sugar. Mix in the Meadow Fresh Original Milk which has been cooled to blood heat, cover and leave in warm place for 10 mins.
Sift the second measure of Edmonds Standard Grade Flour, salt, mixed spice and cinnamon into a large bowl; rub in the Tararua Butter and add the second measure of Chelsea White Sugar and sultanas.
Add the beaten egg to the sponged yeast mixture. Add yeast/egg mixture into the flour mixture until a soft dough is formed. Knead until light and smooth and no longer sticky.
Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and a clean cloth and allow to stand in a warm place until double in bulk (about 40 minutes).
Turn onto a lightly floured surface, punch down and knead dough until smooth and elastic. Divide dough into 16 even-sized pieces - knead each into a round shape. Place on a greased slide tray 1cm apart. Cover and stand in a warm place until well risen (about 10-15 minutes).
Cross Paste Mix sufficient cold water into the Edmonds Standard Grade Flour to make a soft paste and pipe a cross on each bun (pour mixture into a plastic bag, snip one corner and pipe onto buns).
Bake at 220°C conventional (200°C fan forced) for about 20 minutes.
Glaze Heat the Chelsea Caster Sugar, water and gelatine (optional) in a saucepan and simmer 1 minute. When the buns are cooked glaze them with the gelatine mixture while still hot.
You need to update the recipe to include the addition of spice in it, made this without reading reviews and was thinking not much spice and had them and they are so missing the spice flavour.Read these reviews AFTER to then see you've listened to reviews and adjusted, but you should update the recipe with those amounts too.
