Ingredients

  • 1 L vanilla ice cream
  • 6 hot cross buns
  • 1 cup fine breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • 2 cups oil
  • 6 tablespoons honey
  • 1 L vanilla ice cream
  • 6 hot cross buns
  • 1 cup fine breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • 2 cups oil
  • 6 tablespoons honey

Method

  1. Step 1 of 7
    Roll 6 x ice cream balls. Re-freeze for at least four hours or overnight.
  2. Step 2 of 7
    Cut the hot cross buns in half but not right through. Using a rolling pin flatten a little.
  3. Step 3 of 7
    Working quickly, wrap each ice cream ball in a hot cross bun, moulding into a ball shape. Place back into the freezer for another 4 hours or overnight.
  4. Step 4 of 7
    Dip each ball into the egg and then breadcrumbs. Refreeze until ready to cook.
  5. Step 5 of 7
    Half fill a pot with oil or use a deep fat fryer heating it to a medium temperature or about 180°C.
  6. Step 6 of 7
    Take the balls from the freezer and cook immediately for 2 or 3 minutes until golden on the outside. It may pay to cook one first to ensure the temperature is right.
  7. Step 7 of 7
    Serve with a drizzle of honey.
