Not just for Easter, these low-carb hot cross buns can be enjoyed all year round. They're also a great scone substitute when you want a bit of comfort food!

Ingredients
- 200g Low-Carb Flour
- 50g Ground Almonds
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 Lemon (zest)
- 1 sachet Dried Yeast
- 50g Rhubarb (chopped into small pieces and cook al dente)
- 300ml Boiled Water
- 50ml Double Cream
- 25g Butter (melted)
Directions
Pre-heat your oven to 180°C.
Add all the dry ingredients into a bowl and mix well.
Add all the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and mix well to form a dough.
Knead the dough for a few minutes.
Divide into 8 rolls and place on a baking sheet. Make sure there’s enough space between each roll to allow room for expansion whilst cooking.
Leave to prove for 1 hour. This will increase your roll size.
Decorate the rolls with flaked almonds in a cross shape on the top.
Bake at 180°C for 20 minutes.
