Hot Cross Buns

Gather all ingredients.

Put flour, warm water, white sugar, egg, egg white, butter, yeast, milk powder, and salt in a bread maker and start on dough program.

When 5 minutes of kneading are left, add currants and cinnamon. Leave in the machine until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Punch down dough on a floured surface, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes.

Shape into 12 even-sized balls and place in a greased 9x12-inch pan. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, 35 to 40 minutes. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Mix egg yolk with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl; brush on dough. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and cool on wire rack.

To make the piping glaze: Mix confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla together until smooth. Spoon glaze into a piping bag or a sandwich bag with the corner snipped off; pipe a cross onto each roll.

Serve and enjoy!
