How to make Sally Lunn buns:
This is a recipe for a very old type of bun that originated in Bath, England. A Huguenot immigrant called Solange (Solie) Luyon came to Bath and possibly made these buns when she began working for a local baker. Sally Lunn is a corruption of her French name. They are still made and sold in Bath today. See also Bath Buns which are a plain bun from the same area of England.
