THIS RECIPE WAS BASED ON AN IDEA FROM HOME BAKING CLUB MEMBER, MR. A. A. HILDEBRANDT OF STOCKPORT.
“I just wanted to say how great your 500g bread mixes are. My children and I cooked up a few different varieties and made them into rolls for a barbeque. The response from guests was fantastic. Not only were they impressed at our home-baking but also the taste. These mixes make such a change from the usual bland rolls which are served at barbeques. I don’t know whether you advertise these mixes because I just came across them on the supermarket shelf but I am sure they would appeal to mums as they are a lot easier to bake than from scratch with children. I’m sure more mum’s would love to know about them! Thank you for a great product, I am already recommending them to others. ”

A lovely accompaniment to a strong cheese such as Stilton with an apple or ramekin of raisins. Also high in G.I.
