Kozunak

This must have the same kinds of roots as hot cross buns as it’s a form of sweetened bread associated with Easter. It’s a full loaf though – a bit like panettone, but sweeter with sugar sprinkled on top and lumps of chocolate, raisins or candied fruits inside. It’s very difficult to make so you can tell which are the best bakeries as these will be the ones with queues outside in the couple of weeks before Easter. If there’s a better accompaniment to a cup of (British) tea than kozunak anywhere in the world, I’ve yet to hear about it.
