- 1 1/2 tsp dry yeast
- 1/4 c sugar
- 60g melted butter
- 3 C high grade flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 1/2 tsp mixed spice
- 1/2 tsp nutmeg

White icing
- 25g melted butter

Method:
Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees celcius.
Warm milk, and add yeast and sugar. Leave for 5 mins until it becomes frothy.
Add in melted butter and stir gently.
Mix flour, salt and spices in a mixing bowl and make a well in the centre.
Knead with dough hook on your mixer for 5 mins, or by hand for around 100 kneading strokes.
Once dough is formed, leave to rest for 1.5 - 2 hours (it should double in size).
Once risen, tip onto a floured surface and roll into a rectangle shape.
Slather the butter over the dough and sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon mixture.
Roll up along the longest edge and cut into 8-12 pieces.
Carefully place dough rounds onto a lined tray and rest for 30 mins.
Once dough is rested, top each with a small knob of butter and sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar mixture.
Cook in pre-heated oven for 20-25 mins.
Once cooled slightly, mix together the icing glaze ingredients and spread over the buns.
