Method

Ingredients:

450g strong white flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground mixed spice
2 tsp cinnamon
½ tsp ground nutmeg
7g fast-action yeast
50g coconut sugar
50g vegan butter, melted
150ml dairy-free mylk
1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flax mixed with 3 tbsp water)
1 orange, juiced and zested
70g currants

For the glaze:
2 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp hot water

method:

Mix the flour, salt, spices, yeast and coconut sugar together in a large bowl. Make a well in the middle and add the vegan butter, mylk, flax egg, orange juice and zest.
Add currants and mix to a soft dough. Knead on a floured surface for 10 minutes. Pop in a warm place and allow to rise for an hour, until doubled in size.
Divide the dough into 12 pieces and shape into buns. Make a cross in the top of each one and allow to rise for another 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7 and bake for 15 minutes until golden.
Make the glaze by mixing sugar and hot water together. Brush on top of the buns as soon as they come out of the oven
