Ahhhh the traditional hot cross bun just got a face lift into, THE SOFTEST HOT CROSS BUNS recipe. You can totally eat them for breakfast. Or dessert. Or just because. I love food that has strong holiday meaning! Put these on your Easter menu!
This little roll or bun marks the end of Lent and different parts of the hot cross bun have a different meanings. The cross on top of the bun can be piped with frosting or etched into the dough. It represents the crucifixion of Jesus, and the spices inside signify the spices used to embalm him at his burial.
We love to make these sweet rolls around Easter with children, and we love teaching them about the symbolism behind them. Our kids love them, so now we make them every year and our super viral Empty Tomb Rolls. Have you tried them? SO good and so fun for teaching the kiddos more about Easter! Try them or our apple version!
