Let’s just say I’m doing things I never dreamt I would do…haha! No, I am not referring to these Easy Chelsea Buns. I have made these before…Lol!
Easy Chelsea Buns
It’s something much more fun and a little daunting too. I promise even whilst I am typing this post my mind is focusing what still needs to be done. Although I was never diagnosed I think I am a little ADHD. I can never sit still and relax even for 5 minutes. It’s why I never go to the hairdresser or spa very often. I will definitely drive the therapists crazy by asking them how much longer. I know I am crazy and my husband thinks so too. But he’s still with me for 13 years so I think he likes crazy! Let me get to my Easy Chelsea Buns. I love Chelsea Buns but I hated raisins. Now that I am older I eat them. When I was younger I dug out all the raisins and ate only the bread bits. It had little holes all over, like a mouse was nibbling at it!
What is a Chelsea Bun?
Chelsea bun is typically made with a rich bun dough and lemon peel and cinnamon. I don’t know how the raisins or sultanas came about but it’s how we make it here in SA. I am a boring, simple girl so I love buying the chelsea buns from our local supermarkets. Whenever I went shopping I always bought one. Believe or not I used to be so excited coming home and slathering it with butter and gobbling down with a hot cup of coffee. My family were not great fans. However, when I make these homemade Easy Chelsea Buns my husband loves them. I think it’s because he loves buns straight out the oven.
Soft and Delicious
These Easy Chelsea Buns are super soft with a slightly chewy crust. Although I do dig out the raisins I stil enjoy eating them. If you love Chelsea Buns then this recipe is especially for you. I have tried and tested it a few times so I think it’s perfect now. For those that are Vegan why not try this recipe from One Green Planet. It certainly looks amazing.
