Preparation

Step 1

Mix the dry ingredients together.

Step 2

Rub the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs.

Step 3

Add the egg to form a soft dough (may need to add a little extra flour).

Step 4

Form the dough into a roll. Slice the roll to make 12 parts and then slice each part in half. Form into a ball and flatten. Place the buns spaced slightly apart on a baking sheet. Using the end of a rolling pin form a dent in the center of each bun. Put a little jam in the dent.

Step 5

Bake on Gas Mark 5 until golden brown (~10 minutes).

Strawberry jam usually tastes best in this recipe, and if you use the 'no added sugar' variety, that will make it an even healthier snack.
