Hot Cross Bun with Butter is a classic treat associated with British cuisine, traditionally enjoyed around Easter. These spiced sweet buns are typically made with flour, sugar, yeast, milk, and a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and dried fruits like raisins or currants. The iconic cross on top, often made with a flour paste or icing, adds a symbolic touch tied to its Christian heritage. Served warm with a slather of butter, this combination creates a rich and indulgent flavor. While the bun contains fiber and nutrients from the dried fruits, it is also relatively high in sugar and refined carbohydrates. Adding butter introduces additional fats, making it more calorically dense. It’s best enjoyed as an occasional treat within a balanced diet. For a healthier twist, whole-grain flour and reduced sugar options can be used to modify this beloved seasonal favorite.
