Grab a spoon, sit back and enjoy!⁠⁠⁠But is Fruit is Friend or Foe?⁠⁠A new interesting study demonstrates that fruit has shown benefits when replacing sugar however another increasing factor was a suggestion that in addition to having a very low GI, emerging evidence also shows that low-dose fructose (≤10 g/meal) may improve glycemic control through a “catalytic” effect on hepatic glucose metabolism by inducing glucokinase activity (controls blood sugar). ⁠So throw in some fruit into your meals! ⁠⁠Reference⁠Sievenpiper, J.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add milk and heat for an additional minute. Add milk mixture and eggs to dry mixture. Mix using clean hands until a soft dough forms. Knead dough on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes. Place into a lightly oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm place for 1 and a half hours. Dough should double in size. Line a large baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Punch dough to its original size and knead for 30 seconds until smooth. Divide into 12 balls and place on a lined tray, 1cm apart. Cover with plastic wrap. Set aside in a warm, place for 30 minutes.  Preheat oven to 190°C or 170˚C fan-force. To make the paste for the cross, mix flour, Chlorella Powder and water together until smooth. Spoon into a small snap-lock bag. Snip off 1 corner of bag. Pipe paste over tops of buns to form crosses. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until buns are cooked through. To make the glaze, place water and sugar into a small saucepan over low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Boil for 3-4 minutes. Brush glaze over warm hot cross buns. Serve and enjoy!
