Dough:
3 to 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1 package Fleischmann's RapidRise Yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon Spice Islands Ground Nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter or margarine
2 eggs
1/2 cup dried currants or raisins
1/4 cup finely chopped dried or candied pineapple
1 egg white, lightly beaten

Icing:
3/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon Spice Islands Pure Vanilla Extract
2 to 3 teaspoons milk


To make dough: In large bowl, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, undissolved yeast, salt, lemon peel and nutmeg. Heat milk, water and butter until very warm (120 to 130 F); stir into dry ingredients. Stir in 2 eggs, currants, pineapple and enough remaining flour to make soft dough. Knead on lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 4 to 6 minutes. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.

Divide dough into 12 equal pieces; form each into a ball. Place, 2 inches apart, on greased large baking sheet. Cover; let rise in warm, draft-free place until doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.

With sharp knife, cut shallow cross in top of each bun. Brush egg white over tops. Bake at 375 F for 15 to 18 minutes or until done. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack.

To make icing: In small bowl, combine all icing ingredients; stir until smooth. Drizzle over buns in shape of cross.

Makes 12 buns
