Dried Cherry Buns




Ingredients:

250mi/8 fl oz/ 1 cup natural (plain) yogurt
175g/6 oz/3/4 cup dries cherries ( I don't have cherries at hand , so I used the left over soaked fruits from my Rich Fruit Christmas Cake)

2 eggs, at room temperature

10ml/ 2 tsp bicarbonate of soda (baking soda)
1.5 ml/ 1/4 tsp salt



Method:

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt and cherries. Cover and leave to stand for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 180 degree C/ 350 degree F/ Gas 4. Grease 16 bun-tray cups or use paper cases.
  • With an electric mixture, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla extract and the cherry mixture and stir to blend. Set aside.
  • In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt. Fold in to cherry mixture in three batches.
