Categories: Breads, Fruits, Spices, Dairy
Yield: 8 Buns

2 ts Yeast
1 ts Sugar
1/2 c Water; warm
3/4 c Raisins or currants
2 1/2 c Bob's Red Mill gluten-free
- 1-to-1 baking flour
1 ts Salt
1/2 c Sugar
1 ts Cinnamon
2 ts Baking powder
1 ts Baking soda
1 c Milk; warm
1 lg Egg
1/2 c Oil
1 c Confectioner's sugar
1 c Vanilla
2 tb Milk; up to 3 tb

Set oven @ 400?F/205?C.

Mix the yeast and sugar in 1/2 cup warm water.

Let stand for 10 minutes until foamy.

Soak raisins (or currants) in 1 cup hot water to plump them up.

Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, sugar, cinnamon,
baking powder and baking soda.

In a large pot, heat 1 cup milk until very hot but not boiling.

Let the milk rest until warm.

Whisk egg and vegetable oil into the warm milk.

Add the rest of the dry ingredients, proofed yeast and drained
raisins to the milk mixture, and stir until combined.

The dough should be wet and sticky.

Cover dough with a towel and place in a warm, dark place to rise
for about an hour.

Dough should double in size.

Turn dough over onto a well-floured surface and gently shape into a
ball.

Divide the dough into 8 equal parts.

Shape each piece into a ball and place on a parchment lined baking
sheet.

Let the dough rest until each bun has doubled in size.

Bake buns for 12 to 15 minutes, until nice and golden.

Remove buns and let cool.

In a small bowl, combine the confectioner's sugar, vanilla, and
milk.

Whisk vigorously until there are no more clumps.

Icing should be nice and thick.

If it's too thick, add more milk 1 teaspoon at a time.

Transfer the icing to a piping bag and pipe an X over each bun.

Serve.
