I find the round ones are that way because they are baked separate from each other on a flat pan, like buns, rather than in a lasagne type pan.<BR/>Hope this helps in your quest for round buns!NKPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04963976997563464573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3034743878261895543.post-61140374242024675452009-04-11T15:58:00.000-04:002009-04-11T15:58:00.000-04:00Dear Nancy, ciao !

You know I can't believe it: I'm making hot cross buns right now !(I'm in a crazy 'Starter not trowing'/baking frenzy and I made more colombas, another tipical easter bread from Civitavecchia, a whole wheat seed bread, croissants au levain and as Carlo learned in English class a poem and the story of hot cross buns and asked for them... and I found a recipe using starter...<BR/>writing I realized I'm just crazy...!<BR/><BR/>I looked up at the ceiling lamp to see if it moves again but apparently it is still. I'm sorry for being so long I wish you a very wonderful breakfast (literally) tomorrow morning. Happy Easter !nataliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04856412100548643699noreply@blogger.com
