"Dough mode" . adding more flour if the mix is too sticky.Allow to rest in warm place covered with tea towel for 30-40 minutes then divide into 12 buns.
Place buns onto 2 large pieces of baking paper in the Varoma dish. (6 on the top tray & 6 on the bottom). Allow to rise in a warm spot.

Apricot & Hazelnut Hot Cross Buns
Tip
If you are making your chocolate hazelnut spread before starting this recipe you don't need to clean the bowl before starting the recipe.
Erica Noble & arwen.thermomix worked on this recipe together as they both love the Hot Cross Buns made at Jackman & McRoss Bakery in Hobart & wanted to make their own version.
You may like to change some of the dired apricots to some sultanas or currants too.
