How do I make hot cross buns hot? / myLot

March 24, 2016 3:56am CST

Today I bought a pack of hot cross buns. they are not huge but they are very plump and heavy and i have no idea how to heat them. They are too big to fit in the toaster. How have I done this at other times? i suppose i could cut them in half and put them under the griller but this just doesn't seem right. Have I forgotten something? Any suggestions? I wanted chocolate ones but couldn't find any so I have sticky date and caramel ones. Hoping they are yum.

It's a bit late with advice but if it were me, I'd be putting them in the microwave.

@JudyEv LOL, you are sneaky. I didn't have anything else and this lady always serves coffee and goodies.

@MsTickle What a shame! You should have hidden them!

Cut them in two. Place them a small bowl of water in the microwave for a few seconds.

i just had them with butter as they came out of the microwave. They were selling them the other day, 2 weeks after Easter and no discount. i was tempted but I kept walking away on principal. They would be stale!!!
