The spiced, sweet treat we refer to as hot cross buns are studded with raisins, and commonly toasted and eaten with butter.
Traditionally eaten during the Easter holiday, this beloved sweet bun can be traced back to the medieval Hertfordshire countryside. By many accounts, a 14-century monk called Thomas Rocliffe is credited as making the very first hot cross bun. The buns were handed out to the local poor on Good Friday.
