CAST IRON Baked Tea Buns
Hi and welcome to our website!!!
So many recipes for homemade tea buns and I love them all...
But this one is extra special because it's baked in a cast iron pan on a bed of melted butter.
Cold butter or margarine works best in this recipe inside the batter, but melt one or two tablespoons of butter in a cast iron pan while the oven is preheating to 375ºF.
Mix with hand or mixer to work the dough and form into a ball.
I hope you are excited to make these tasty little tea buns baked in a cast iron pan.
