What I usually do when I need a recipe is try the archives first.
The main page is at http://www.bread-bakers.com/ and
there is a search function.
Since you have Juno, you may only have e-mail and not full
web access, so I am taking the liberty of reposting some items
that were in the archives. (Hint Hint Reggie, you don't have to add
these to the archives they are already there).
I haven't tried any of these yet, but I may this year.

Its almost Easter. Here is my recipe for Hot Cross Buns via the ABM. One
cravat the more fruit you put into this the less they rise. So if you want
big fluffy buns easy on the fruit. Lots of fruit gives you a very good but
very dense bun.
Hot Cross Buns
1 pkg Active dry yeast
3 cups Bread flour
1/4 cup Sugar
3/4 tea Salt
1/2 cup warm milk
1/2 cup warm water
2 heaping Tablespoons of lard or butter
1 Egg yolk (reserve the white)
1 Tbl Cinnamon
1 tea Nutmeg
1 cup Candied fruit.
Dump everything except the fruit into the machine. Select Manual or dough
setting and press go. Add the fruit about 10 or 15 minutes later or it
will disappear.
When the dough is ready. Pat out into a 12x9 rectangle and then break off
into 12 pieces the size of a small orange. You should have 12 little
balls, place into the greased 13x9 pan cover and let rise in a warm place
until double in volume (about 45 min)
Take the reserved egg white and add 1 tea of water and mix well. Brush the
rolls and put into the oven and bake at 375, for 20-25 minutes until light
golden brown color.
Take what's left of the egg white/water mixture and add ½ tea of Vanilla and
some confectioners sugar till its thick. Place in a small plastic bag and
make your white crosses on the buns (after they have cooled)

Here is the recipe I use. It is from the Bread Machine Book by Marjie
Lambert with one change, brown sugar is substituted for white. That idea
came from the Sunbeam Recipe Book. I have sometimes added more currants
or raisins.
HOT CROSS BUNS
12 - 16 Ingredients 18 - 24
1 egg 1 + 1 yolk
1/2 cup milk 3/4 cup
1/4 cup brown sugar 6 tbsp
1 tsp grated lemon peel 1 1/2 tsp
1/2 tsp cinnamon 3/4 tsp
1/4 tsp nutmeg 1/2 tsp
1/8 tsp ground cloves 1/4 tsp
1/2 tsp salt 3/4 tsp
2 cups flour 3 cups
2tsp yeast 1 tbsp
1/4 cup currants or raisins 1/2 cup
Put all ingredients except currants or raisins in bread pan and process on
dough stage. Add currants or raisins at beep or after first kneading.
[Sometimes I just knead them in by hand after dough cycle complete.]
Lightly oil a 9 inch square pan or 10 inch round pan for smaller recipe, a
9 x 13 inch pan or two 8 x 8 square pan for larger.
When dough is ready, remove from pan and punch down. Cut smaller recipe
into 12 to 16 equal pieces, the larger recipe into 18 to 24 pieces. Roll
each piece into a ball. Place each ball about 1/2 inch apart in baking
pan. Cover loosely and set in warm place to rise until doubled, about 45
minutes to 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 375F. With a sharp knife or razor blade, cut a cross in
the top of each roll. Bake 12 to 15 minutes, until a skewer inserted in
the roll comes out clean.
Make a glaze of 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar, 1 Tbsp milk or cream and 1/2
tsp lemon. Add sugar or mild if needed to give it a consistency to
drizzle over the rolls. Let rolls cool slightly but not completely.
drizzle icing in a cross, following cuts in the top of bun.

Hi Bobby
Every Easter I make several pans of these the day before, divide them into
the
appropriate breakfast sized portions and deliver them that afternoon to
various family members for their Easter breakfast. The grand kids rave
about
them so, having passed the grand kid test, I suppose they're petty good, and
as you know, grand kids always tell it like it is. Hope you like them.
Happy Baking!

the
dough and proceed as follows.
Preheat oven to 375F.
Grease a 15x10x1 inch baking pan. Punch dough down (if your machine hasn't
already done so) and divide into 24 equal parts. Shape into balls, place
into
baking pan and brush tops with beaten egg white. Let rise until doubled in
bulk. Bake 15 to 20 min until golden brown.

milk to achieve the proper consistency. Let buns cool slightly, then using
a
cake decorator pipe a cross on the top of each bun.

This recipe was in our local daily paper a couple of years ago. The
dough is easy to work with & fairly forgiving - the mentally challenged
ladies I work with love to help make these. For those with a 1 lb machine, I
hope that you have discovered & taken advantage of the fact that with dough
you can make recipes 1/2 a pound larger than the stated capacity of the
machine.
HOT CROSS BUNS (1 1/2 lb recipe)
Vancouver Sun - Edith Adams Kitchen
3/4 cup milk 1/2 tsp allspice
2 large eggs 2 tsp bread machine yeast
1/4 cup butter @ room temp 1/2 cup currants
cut into small pieces 1/3 cup mixed peel
1 tsp salt 1 egg white
3 1/3 cups all-purpose flour 1 TBSP water
3 TBSP sugar ICING (opt)
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1 cup icing sugar
1/2 tsp nutmeg 2 TBSP milk (approx)
Place milk, eggs, butter, salt, flour, sugar, spices & yeast into
bread machine pan in the order suggest in your manual. Process on the dough
cycle.
When the cycle is complete, transfer dough to lightly floured
surface. If necessary, knead in enough flour to make dough easy to handle.
Knead in currants & peel.
Divide dough into 12 equal pieces. Form each piece into a smooth
ball & place on large greased baking sheet. Cover & let rise in warm,
draft-free place until almost doubled in size, about 15 - 20 minutes.
lightly beat together egg white & water: brush over tops of buns. If you
don't want to add icing to your buns, at this point, cut a cross into the
top of them. For a decadent touch you can use marzipan to form a cross now -
be warned that marzipan grows when it bakes so use a very stingy log (
1/8-inch ). Put the marzipan on top of the egg-wash so it will stick.
Bake at 375F for 15 to 18 minutes ( my oven does them in 12 to 15
minutes ) or until done. Remove from baking sheet & cool on rack.
ICING - In a small bowl, mix icing sugar & enough milk to make icing of
desired consistency. Pipe on in the form of cross on each or smooth over the
top if marzipan used.
Enjoy! Mavis
