      Hi John I have made quite a few of your bread recipes which they have all turned out perfect. 👍 I was just inquiring if you have a cinnamon rolls recipe that I can follow on CZcams. I know there is a lot of cinnamon roll recipes on CZcams, but I prefer to follow your recipe as I know they will always turn out perfect. Thanks 🙏🏻 😊

    Hello John,. I was trained at the Royals bakeries with madame Floris in London in the 60s, as a patissere and with her son as a baker. I have nothing but admiration for your receipes and clearly explained baking methods. No one could fail to create delicious breads, buns and cakes for their family following your step by step instructions.

    I must make these! None of the modern hot cross buns in the supermarkets now have that magical scent and taste of the beautiful spices I've always loved since childhood. Thank you for your wonderfully explained recipes, I hope that more people will find the courage to start baking. Schools should be teaching pupils to cook, as we were back in the fifties and sixties. It is such a valuable and enjoyable skill for life!

    Hi John, I have checked that this is the third time I write a comment here. I made these buns again today. I think this is the best recommendation for them. To all viewers: don't be shy, don't wait, make them, you will not regret it. Please don't be afraid of crosses, it's so simple and gives that extra touch which make them unique. They are so delicious, I always make them with double amount of ingredients, freeze most of them and then take 2 out of the freezer whenever I want something nice with my cup of coffee. Although this is my third comment, it doesn't mean that I made them only 3 times, it was at least 6 times. Thank you John. Happy New Year to you and your family :)

      I don't have the pastry press nozzles to do the crosses. I've heard cutting the tip off a bag works too, but it seems clumsier. Do you do them w/ just a bag?

    @marchair Před 3 měsíci +4

    I think you had a slip of the tongue: mixed spice is not the same as allspice. The first is a blend of other ingredients, the latter is one single berry. Americans can sub with pumpkin pie spice in a pinch, but it doesn’t have quite the same flavour profile as mixed spice.
    That said, these buns are tremendous, as is your crusty bread recipe that never fails.
    Thanks, John, for sharing your expertise. Keep up the brilliant videos.

    Omg, John, I live in a cold, stone French farmhouse, we can't buy these here ! I have to get dried mixed fruit brought over from Blighty. I made the dough and proved on the counter overnight, shaped 10 this morning (rather than 12) and just baked 4 of them off this afternoon sans cross for speed...we had one each, straight out of the oven. Will bake the others off tomorrow. Definitely a religious experience. Your channel is fantastic. Thank you so much.

    These look fantastic, John. I love that you always include little tips such as keeping the nozzle pointing upright when filling the pastry bag with the "cross" batter. It's tips like these that lead to excellent results, and I sure do appreciate your thoroughness.
    I made these about two years ago and they were fantastic. I'm well-past making another batch, I'd say!

    I made these on Thursday ready for breakfast the next day (Good Friday) I took out the yeast (and extra cinnamon as I don't like it) and used sourdough starter instead. I started Wednesday night because of the longer proving times. They've turned out to be the best HCBs I've ever eaten. And I've eaten a lot, as I love them. Thanks so much for an excellent recipe.

    John, have just made these buns for the second time. I have tried numerous recipes in the past but never managed to make Hot Cross Buns that are edible; these are so quick and easy. As a Brit, living in Brittany, France, your recipes are allowing us a taste of home. French food is amazing but you can't beat a spicy fruited bun or a good old white loaf for toasted soldiers.We are working through all your sweet and savoury recipes, doughnuts, teacakes, scotch eggs and pork pies and they have all been successful.

    Many years ago we had a coal-fired Rayburn in our kitchen which had a small oven (it was the only heating we had in our house other than the open fire in our lounge). I worked as an RGN at the time which meant working long hours. One year my husband baked a fantastic fruit cake for my birthday (if it wasn’t for the delicious fragrance in the kitchen, anyone would have thought it was shop bought!). Following this success, my husband decided to surprise me again the following year by baking some hot cross buns. The only problem was that the baking tray couldn’t quite fit in the oven. No worries, thought my husband - he just baked them with the door open and turned the tray around half way through cooking so the other half could bake. When I got home, he proudly presented his half dozen hot cross buns with a hot cup of coffee….the buns were rock hard! 😂😂😂

Since last Monday I started trying your bread recipes one by one, mostly the no-knead series, and have made ciabatta, farmhouse loaf and sandwich bread. And I can't believe that I successfully made baguette in my kitchen!!! Thank you so much for all your recipes. Making bread with your recipes has proved to be the most amazing thing during lockdown. Wishing you and your family a very Happy Easter. Stay safe.

    Hi John. Such a fantastic recipe which I shall be making again this year. Thank you!! Just a quick point. There is a big difference between allspice and mixed spice. (I have used both at different times in the hcb) Allspice is the dried unripe berry from a tropical evergreen tree, pimenta dioica, native to the Caribbean and parts of the Central Americas. Mixed spice, on the other hand, is a blend of several spices including cinnamon, coriander seed, caraway, nutmeg, ginger and cloves. Regards from Australia 🦘🦘

    Hi John, Wishing you and your family a very happy Easter. Thank you for your videos. I have watched countless other chefs and cooks, but I'm a loyal subscriber to yours. You have a very easy and relaxed style. What I enjoy most, is that you include so much of the "why" along with the "what and how". You give a fantastic mixture of recipe, with technique, and the science behind the scenes. When you explained that ciabatta was about a fixed hydration percentage my brain did a little happy dance. I have a number of your tips stored away now and they are all very useful. I'm so glad that you're recovered now as I missed your time away. Kindest regards from New Zealand.

    Well this is the 3rd year I have made these and the best I have tried.
    I like a lot of spice so I upped the Mixed Spice to 3 tspn and the Cinnamon to 1.5 tspn. I increased the fruit to 320g (because we like ours fruity) which I soaked in orange juice and the grated 0:49 orange rind. For us it is the perfect combination of fruit and spice but if you aren’t “that way inclined” once again, Mr Kirkwood has produced a brilliant and easy recipe.
    Thank you John.

I think this is the best proof for all people that your buns are the best :) I wouldn't make them 5 days after I made them for the first time ;) This time they came out even nicer then the first time - I mean I mastered 'painting' crosses so they are more even.
