l remember eating buns like this growing up, although they tasted way better than mine. After all, anything our moms make are just the tastiest right? But I decided to give it a try.

They are a little stiffer than regular cakes; it’s how they are supposed to be made. Hence the name, “rock” buns. They’re great for snacking, brunching, or for taking to parties.

There is something about the flavor of the cinnamon and raisins in one recipe. I think it is such a great combination especially in cakes, buns and oatmeal recipes.

The buns don’t all have to have the same shape – that’s the beauty of rock buns. Some of mine came out with a perfectly round shape while others came out kind of spread out a little. That’s all OK.

It’s OK too if they look a little more brown on the underside. They are supposed to rock and therefore a tiny bit hard. You can always cook them a few minutes less than the suggested time if you prefer it softer.
