Weekend Breakfast

Mornings in our house, like many other families with young, school-age children, are rather busy. They want their breakfast immediately, you want to stay in bed for another 10 minutes, they want to watch tv, you want them to get their clothes on first... It's busy and a little crazy, breakfast tends to be a bowl of cereal or some toast.

At the weekend we have more time. It doesn't matter if they spend a while watching tv in their pj's while you have that extra 10 minutes dozing. Breakfast can be more leisurely, you can put a bit more effort in. Today we made Cranberry-Orange Breakfast Buns from Smitten Kitchen.

Oh my!



The prep work was done yesterday evening. This morning I just put the dish in the oven for half an hour.



The recipe suggests orange icing to go on top so we added that too



So pretty!



The centre is gooey, sweet and citrusy



They were very very good! And filling too, we've got half the dish left over for breakfast tomorrow, fab :-)
