DAD'S FAVOURITE - JAM BUNS


JAM BUNS



 Ingredients:

16 oz self raising flour (maybe a little extra)
8 oz marg
6 oz caster sugar( a little extra for dusting)
1 large egg
a little milk 
 a cap full of vanilla extract
raspberry/ strawberry jam

Utensils

Wooden Spoon
Large Mixing Bowl
Baking Tray
Grease proof paper
Weighing Scales




Method:

preheat oven to 180 degrees/ gas mark 5

Step 1 - Rub flour and marg together until it looks like breadcrumbs(use your fingers if you don't mind a bit of mess)





Step 2 - beat your egg



Step 3 - Add the sugar, vanilla extract and beaten egg to the breadcrumb mixture and stir



Step 4 - add a small amount of milk and stir



(when you're done, the mixture should look like the picture below, if it is much sloppier add a little more flour, if it is much drier add a little more milk)



Step 5 - roll the dough into golf sized balls and place on a baking tray (with grease proof paper)




Step 6 - press your finger into each ball to make a small hole (don't go all the way through the dough) fill each hole with jam then sprinkle each bun with caster sugar.



Step 7 - bake for 12-15 mins 










Hope you enjoyed this recipe, these are perfect with a good cup of tea in the afternoon:)
