These gluten free, vegan Hot Cross Buns are so easy and quick to make. They are made with our YOMO Burger Bun mix which means no rise time required – just shape and bake. If you don’t usually eat low carb, do not be deterred – an almond meal base means beautiful taste and soft texture that everyone will love. These are amazing fresh and so good toasted!
