This was my first real bread making attempt and it worked out wonderfully.   Yay!  Thanks for a great recipe Chookie!  I halved it and it was perfect.  I won't halve it again next time though, beacause they were just too good!

That's good news tsr.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Wow, success on your first try - congratulations, it took me a while to get the hang of dough making.

Tsr,  glad you liked this recipe.  You can make it as a bun without the crosses , later in the year.

Uni,  they look ok.  Butter is more traditional.
