black bun

Not a bun in the sense of bread, the Scottish black bun is a spicy mixture of nuts with dried and candied fruit enclosed in a rich pastry crust. Traditionally, Scots serve it at Hogmanay (the New Year). It’s best prepared several weeks in advance so the fruit mixture can ripen and develop flavor.
