Hot Cross Buns are a seasonal yeast bread traditionally served on Good Friday. These are sweet buns spiced with ground cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves, filled with currants (raisins).What makes them instantly recognizable is that the tops of the bun are marked with a 'cross' which symbolically represents the Cross of Christ and the Crucifixion.
I love doing seasonal bakes and I do try my hand, especially with baking recipes since I love to bake. The past year has been a whirl wind with me since I have tried tons of baking recipes and mind you I do get questions if I have kitchen flops, yes I do. Its been only a year since I have self-learnt to bake, I do read a lot, explore, do trial and errors, but mostly enjoy this new found love to baking bread.
