Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • Zosia on April 09, 2020

    These have such wonderful flavour, lightly spiced and chock full of tart fruit and bittersweet chocolate. The dough was a little stiff and shaping the buns was a challenge for me. Despite my best efforts to conceal the chocolate pieces inside as directed, there were many escapees; fortunately they didn't burn. I needed to add 2tbsp extra water to the cocoa dough so I could pipe it and I ended up using only a quarter of it. I made 16 large buns that were baked in 20 minutes. Substitutions: orange juice for apple; 300g bread flour for AP; and 2 tbsp mango jam for apricot preserves.
