I didn't used to be a bread baker, and honestly I'm still pretty new to it, but there are few things as rewarding as a fresh whole grain loaf. In this episode, I'll talk about a light whole grain Hot Cross Buns recipe flavored with orange zest, figs, and toasted almond and what to look for to get great results.
