Perfect Hot Cross Buns
People go crazy year after year for these easter buns made at our restaurant which are real hot cross buns, not like the ones you find in supermarkets and are made with love and flavor, which is what Riverstone Kitchen - The Cooking School is all about.
Real hot cross buns should be full of fruit, lots of spice, and have a nice chewy texture while still being light.
