Ingredients
- 225 g self raising flour
- 100 g unsalted butter
- 50 g caster sugar
- 100 g currants
- 30 g mixed peel
- 1 medium egg
- 60 ml skimmed milk
Kitchen Gadgets
- Cosori Air Fryer
Instructions
- Load into a bowl the flour and the sugar and then add in the butter chopped into chunks.
- Mix the fat into the flour and sugar until you have a bowl of coarse breadcrumbs.
- Then add in the egg and currants and the peel and mix well.
- Next add enough milk to make a wet dough. Adding a little milk at a time until you have a dough that is like overly sticky scone mix or like a really thick cake batter.
- Line your air fryer with foil as the rock buns are sticky as you add the mixture into the air fryer.
- Then use a tablespoon to add 2 heaped tablespoons of mix onto the foil, spreading it out so that four blobs of rock cake mix will fit in the air fryer basket.
- Then air fry for 8 minutes at 180c/360f doing it in batches if needed. Then serve with butter and jam.

Notes
- Milk. I recommend having 60ml/4tbsp of milk for helping bind together your rock buns recipe. Then adding a little at a time. You can always add extra but you can’t take it away.
- Currants. I used just 100g of currants and 30g of mixed peel, you can of course double this if you like a lot of them in your dough.
