Hot Cross Buns

Here are some of my favourite places to get these delicious Easter treats.

1. St. John's Bakery - A real classic.
2. Gail's Bakery - So delicious, and you can get a bacon HCB sandwich so double win.
3. Bread Ahead - Fluffy texture and amazing flavour that sticks to the HCB traditional roots.
4. Fortnum & Mason - Out there flavours, but I loved the goat cheese and fig HCB.
5. Dominque Ansel - Perfectly spiced and delicious.
6. Fortitude Bakehouse - Basically like eating a delicious pillow of yumminess.
7. Lyle's - Have it toasted with butter for the ultimate treat.
8. Honey & Co - A HCB filled with cardamon and orange marsapone? Yes, please.
9. Little Bread Pedlar - Get one if you can!
10. The Modern Pantry - Can you guess their secret ingredient? It gives their buns a little kick.
11. Pophams - They make theirs with leftover croissant dough. Need I say more.
12. Melrose and Morgan - A lovely HCB.

Bonus: My favourite supermarket HCB are the mini chocolate hot cross buns from M&S. They are so so good!
