Hot cross buns have gotten a serious glow-up lately. Bakeries and supermarkets are stocking wild flavours, from Biscoff to Cadbury Caramello, and it’s only fair the gluten free versions get the same treatment. This gluten free hot cross bun recipe is our take on that.
Split a store-bought gluten free hot cross bun, load it with jam and cream, and finish it with a cocoa drizzle — Wagon Wheel style. The whole thing takes about 10 minutes and it’s the easiest gluten free Easter dessert you’ll make this year.
