Wow, talk about a long title. I’ve always been one of those people that think the shorter the title, the better but sometimes you need all of those delicious descriptions.
Easter is creeping up on us quickly. In fact, the whole year has just whizzed on by so far. It feels like just yesterday we were talking down Christmas decorations and now we’re buying hot cross buns and chocolate Easter eggs. Luckily for me, Easter is my favourite time of year because hot cross buns are like my kryptonite. I could eat them all year round but that takes the fun out of it.
A friend of ours offered us a weekend away as a honeymoon gift (as well as a board game) and I decided that I needed to make something tasty. I had just bought my first pack of hot cross buns for the year but as I’m the only one in the house that eats them, they needed to be used up. And that was how this delicious pudding came about.

Michael pulled that face he does when he sees me do something with food that he’s never imagined before. He didn’t know we could roast strawberries, but we can and we will.
These roasted strawberries are beautifully sweet and tart all in one. They can be made out of fresh strawberries when you have too many or out of strawberries that have seen better days. They’ll be popped into a warm oven and allowed to get all juicy and sweet until their slightly darker spots are a thing of the past.
