Fig and Rosemary Buns

Yesterday we had some of our favourite little play-daters over for an afternoon of fun at the local park. They're delightful kiddies and the four little people play really well together. The fact that frequent disciplining is not necessary is a true silver lining as it means the mummies are able to have a real conversation and catch up. Hallelujah! 

I made these little buns for afternoon tea. They're quick and I had a busy day so that was I important. By quick I should clarify that I mean there isn't a lot of time in the preparation. Like all bread based recipes, time to prove is needed.

I made a standard bread recipe from 1 cup of spelt flour, and once it had risen a little, added 1 cup of chopped figs and various other mixed dried fruits, and two sprigs of rosemary (finely chopped). 

If I was making these for grown ups, I would have served them with a really good extra virgin olive oil "butter" or Meredith goats cheese.
