Paleo Hot Cross Buns

Tasty hot cross buns free from gluten and perfect for the whole family this Easter.

3 cups Flannerys Almond Meal
Pinch Flannerys Fine Himalayan Salt
1/2 tsp bicarb soda
1/4 cup Flannerys Organic EV Coconut Oil
2 TBS Flannerys Organic Maple Syrup
Zest of 1 orange
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
2 free range organic eggs
Pinch cinnamon, nutmeg and ground cloves
1/4 cup Flannerys Organic Raisins
50g good quality organic chocolate, roughly chopped (check the bulk bins at your local Flannerys store) or cacao nibs
Extra chocolate for the crosses on top, if desired

Preheat oven to 160 degrees.
Mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Once well combined add the wet ingredients and the chocolate chunks, mixing until a dough forms.
Scoop even portions of mixture onto a baking tray (approximately 12-14 portions) and bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden.
Remove from the oven and rest until cool.
Melt extra chocolate and drizzle over the buns to create crossed, if you like.
