Recipe's preparation

    Salted Caramel Sauce
  1. Place all sauce ingredients into the bowl and cook for 8 minutes, Varoma temp, speed 3 with the MC off.
  2. Pour into a glass jar and set aside to cool.
  3. Hot Cross Buns
  4. Add milk and butter to bowl and mix for 5 minutes, 37 degrees, speed 2.
  5. Add egg to bowl and mix 5 seconds, speed 3.
  6. Add to the bowl the yeast, brown sugar, bakers flour, cinnamon and salt. Slowly turn speed dial up to speed 6 over 10 seconds. Scrape down bowl.
  7. Knead for 4 minutes.
  8. Add 50g of the salted caramel sauce and the pecans and knead for a further minute.
  9. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celcius.

    Wrap in a Thermomat or place in an oiled bowl covered with glad wrap and leave in a warm place for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
  10. Knock back dough and weigh out twelve 75g balls. Place on an ovensized Thermomat or a tray lined with baking paper. Cover with a damp Chux and leave in a warm place for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.
  11. Poke a hole into the middle of each bun (the end of a chopstick is good for this) and using a syringe, squirt about 1ml of caramel sauce into the bun (drizzle in with a teaspoon if you don't have a syringe).
  12. Combine the extra flour with 3-4 tablespoons of water and stir to make a paste. Place in a small zip lock bag with the corner snipped off and pipe lines on the buns to form crosses.
  13. Bake for 10 minutes then reduce temperature to 180 celcius and bake for another 10 minutes or until golden. The buns are ready when they sound hollow when you tap them.
  14. Use a pastry brush to glaze the top of the buns while hot with some of the left over caramel sauce.
  15. You will have plenty of caramel sauce left to pour over icecream or eat with a spoon from the fridge!

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!
