These hot cross buns were delicious! The dough was easy to work with and the buns turned out perfectly golden brown. The flavor was amazing, with just the right amount of sweetness and spice. My family loved them!

These buns were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I may have overmixed the dough. The flavor was good, but I prefer a lighter, fluffier bun.

These buns were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time. Otherwise, they were very good.
