Directions

1. Cut the buns in half and butter both sides, fill with cheese, then close the sandwich together.

2. Whisk egg, milk, sugar and cinnamon, then dip the hot cross bun sandwiches and leave to sit in the egg mix for about 30 seconds on each side to soak up the egg.

3 Heat and grease a waffle iron, then cook the toasties for about 2 – 3 minutes until golden and the cheese has melted.
