Bernie's Basic Bun Mixture



This bun mixture is my granny, Bernie’s, recipe. These buns are extremely easy to make and they are very delicious too.


Bernie’s Basic Bun Mixture

Ingredients
225g (8oz) Flora Light/butter
225g (8oz) caster sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 free range eggs
280g (10oz) self-raising flour (sieved)
30mls milk

Method
1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/390°F/gas mark 6.
2. Place the flora, sugar and vanilla extract into a bowl and cream together until it is a pale yellow colour.
3. Add the eggs, one at a time with a little flour to prevent the mixture from curdling. Mix well.
4. Add the flour little by little then mix well. Stir in the milk. If it drops off easily in a dollop then it is ready.
5. Take a spoonful of mixture, with a dessert spoon and scrape into the bun case using a teaspoon. Don’t fill the case to the top.
6. Bake in the oven for 20 mins or until golden brown in colour. Cool on a wire tray.

Enjoy!
