Place all the flour, sugar, yeast, salt, spice mix, egg and water into a mixer. Knead with a dough hook on high speed. Once the mix has come together add the diced butter one at a time until everything is combined. The whole kneading process should take around 10 minutes. Finally add all the fruit then mix for another minute or until combined. Spray the inside of a medium plastic or stainless steel bowl with oil and then add the dough. Place the bowl in the oven, select the Dough prove function and set the time to 1hr. Prove dough for the allotted time or until the dough has doubled in size. While dough is proving make the paste for the crosses. Mix the plain flour and water to make a paste, then place into a piping bag. Line universal tray with baking paper. Once the dough has proved, knock the air out of it and cut into 12 portions, shape into buns and place on the prepared tray and pipe on the crosses. Select the Dough Prove function and prove for another 30 minutes. When the time has finished leave the buns in the oven. Change the function to CircoTherm® at 190⁰C and cook the buns for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Once cooked, remove the buns from the oven and allow to cool for 30 minutes before serving. Note Dough should be a little sticky when kneading to ensure a soft and fluffy hot cross bun. If Vario Steam is available, add medium level of steam when baking the buns.

What can you splurge on? Benchtops Your kitchen benchtop can easily be one of the most-used elements of your newly renovated kitchen. So, investing in a durable and practical benchtop that suits your space is a must. And while materials such as stone might cost more, their tough nature and style will add practicality and aesthetics to your kitchen. You can also customise your benchtop to suit your kitchen to make the most of your space. Dishwasher A good-quality, reliable dishwasher is essential for any kitchen renovation design. They can be the difference between a quick clean-up at mealtime and spending extra hours in the kitchen. Picking a dishwasher with a good rating and functions like NEFF’s Vario Speed, the speed on demand function that is a perfect time saver, enables you to spend more time on important things, like cooking. NEFF’s range of fully-integrated, semi-integrated and built-under dishwashers also have helpful inclusions like Door Open Sensor, which lets you push the door to gently open, or Silent Drive, which reduces the noise your dishwasher makes for extra quiet operation. Oven If you love cooking a Sunday roast or baking up a storm (hello chocolate cookies!), a top-quality oven is an appliance worth your investment. There are different types of ovens out there, so it’s a good idea to think about the size and type of oven you will need based on what you like to cook. Are you someone with a high level or cooking? Or are you more of a recreational baker? The NEFF built-in double oven combines functionality with space and allows you to cook different meals at the same time, meaning you can have dinner and desert baking away in unison. Our popular Slide & Hide® oven makes retrieving your cooking easier with its fully retractable door that slides under the cavity and out of your way. And the NEFF steam oven range with Full Steam can elevate your cooking experience by adding moisture to food that is prone to dry out, such as salmon. If you’re really looking to splurge, take a look at NEFF’s Home Connect products, including ovens, which use WIFI connectivity and the latest technology to give you a smarter cooking experience. These appliances are managed via the Home Connect app and controlled from your smartphone or tablet. Want to see these appliances in action? Then you can book in a free NEFF demonstration. Our NEFF kitchen experts can help you find the oven that’s right for your cooking needs. Overall layout It can be easy to get caught up in choosing the appliances you want – but making sure your kitchen layout is practical and well planned is one of the most important things to spend money on. Take your time and consult an expert if needed to make your kitchen the best it can be. What can you save on? Microwave If you’re someone who prefers to cook with an oven or stovetop, a microwave might not be high on your priority list. Choosing a cheaper microwave could help save on costs. If it’s space you’re wanting to capitalise on, consider hybrid appliances – like the NEFF built-in compact oven with microwave function, which gives you two appliances in one. Cabinetry The cabinetry in a kitchen is important, but it can also be expensive. See if you can save on costs by upcyclying old material or sourcing items from second-hand dealers. Social media groups and curbside pickups can also be a goldmine, with many people selling old items for cheap or giving them away for free. And a fresh coat of paint can do wonders in transforming a cupboard from old to new and can add character with high gloss, matt and distressed finishes. You can also cut down on costs by having a go at the task yourself, reducing the need to hire tradespeople. Lighting Lighting in a kitchen doesn’t have to be flashy, but it does have to be practical. By installing ample lighting above your key cooking stations – your preparation bench, cooktop and sink – you will ensure your kitchen is functional at all hours of the day. You should also consider purchasing LEDs and CFLs globes, as they are the most energy efficient types of lighting and will serve you better in the long run. Kitchen lighting doesn’t have to be expensive, but making sure the lights themselves are in a useful position will allow you more time to concentrate on what’s important: food. If you’re looking for other items to save or splurge on, consider the type and quality of your flooring, splashback, pantry size and storage space. These areas can all be tailored to meet budget requirements with options for high and lower-quality products available.

1. Marinate your chicken breast Marinating is good for flavouring and tenderising your chicken at the same time. It’s best to marinate your chicken overnight to give the flavours plenty of time to infuse. A faster way to add flavour is to simply brine your chicken in salty water prior to cooking. This will help tenderise the meat and add extra flavour. Greek marinade: For a classic Greek flavour combination, simply mix lemon juice, garlic, parsley, oregano with some olive oil then place your chicken breast in the marinade to infuse. It’s that easy! This marinade is perfect if you want to grill or pan-fry your chicken. Moroccan spices: Add a touch of spice to your chicken breast by combining paprika, cinnamon, turmeric, cumin, ginger, garlic and olive oil to create a paste. Then cover your chicken breast with the paste and pat down to secure. This Middle Eastern spice rub is delicious when charred on the grill. If you want try these flavours out, then take a look at our spicy harissa chicken. Maple glaze: If you have a sweet tooth, then this is the marinade for you! Mix maple syrup, garlic, soy sauce and lime juice with chicken stock then cook it on a low heat and let it thicken until it becomes a beautiful, glossy glaze. Once reduced, rub the glaze over your chicken breast and let it infuse. Don’t forget to put some aside to pour over your chicken when cooking for even more flavour! 2. Bread or crumb your chicken breast Breading or crumbing generally involves dipping your chicken breast in flour, followed by an egg wash before coating it with crumbs. This coating helps protect the chicken from drying out during the cooking process so that you have a succulent, perfectly cooked breast every time. Chicken Schnitzel: The dish that we all know and love when we think of crumbed chicken has got to be the classic Chicken Schnitzel. Pounded with a meat tenderiser to ensure that it’s an even thickness all over for a constant cook and fried in oil, Schnitzels have stood the test of time as a classic whether at home or the local pub! Panko: Panko breadcrumbs are used in many fried Asian dishes and are made exclusively from white bread without the crusts. The bread is flaked before drying to increase aeration and ultimately crunchiness when used in cooking. Your chicken breasts will have a crispier shell with a lot more crunch while the meat inside is still perfectly tender. Coconut flakes: This technique is the same as other crumbing methods but uses shredded coconut with the flour and bread. First, coat the chicken breast in coconut flour, then dip it into a mixture of coconut milk & eggs before finally rolling it in shredded coconut. Fry these off in coconut oil and you’ll be whisked away to a tropical paradise, even if it’s only while you’re eating dinner. Want to blend sweet at savory for your next dinner? Then try our coconut and sesame chicken – using the Added Steam function on your NEFF oven ensures that your chicken stays succulent on the inside and crispy on the outside. 3. Stuff your chicken breast Stuffed chicken breasts adds flavour to the meat while it cooks and can be a wonderful surprise when served at dinner. Simply slice the thickest part of the chicken breast to ensure you have enough room for your stuffing, then use kitchen twine to secure it all in place while roasting in the oven. Medjool dates and fresh herbs: The sweetness and fragrance of the dates and herbs are what makes this stuffing so delectable that, your guests will be asking for seconds. First, cook a diced onion and set aside. Then roughly chop a handful of pitted Medjool dates, pistachio nuts, and fresh herbs such as parsley and sage. Mix together with breadcrumbs and the cooked onion and stuff into your chicken breast before baking. You can also swap the dates for a different dried fruit, like cranberries. Brie and prosciutto with fresh tarragon: This stuffing is so simple it’s perfect for any occasion, and it only takes a few minutes to prepare. Simply wrap a small slice of prosciutto around a piece of brie then tuck inside the chicken breast along with some fresh tarragon. The prosciutto will helps keep contain the brie as it melts so that it oozes out once your chicken breast is fully baked. Check out our prosciutto wrapped chicken recipe if you want to give this recipe a try at your next dinner party. Ready to cook your chicken to perfection?
