Hot cross buns can be found in many Toronto bakeries come Easter time, traditionally served as a Good Friday treat. The buns are unmistakably marked with a cross on the top and often made with currants or raisins. Get them while they're hot and while they're available, as it's often limited.
Here are my picks for the top places to find hot cross buns in Toronto.
Brick Street Bakery
Only available around Easter, this bakery with locations all over Toronto will be offering up their traditional take on hot cross buns for $2 a pop or six for $10.

The artisanal bread maker located in Liberty Village will be selling their buns for $5 each starting April 15. They'll be offered for a limited time until April 20.
