What do you put on your hot cross bun?

I love hot cross buns at Easter, but I only ever have them with butter - toasted or untoasted.
I thought that was what everyone did, but DH has to have them toasted with butter and jam?!
How do you eat yours?

Cold salted butter and nothing else - jam would just make it all too sweet, and there's something so delicious about the contrast between a toasty-warm hot cross bun and cold butter. The same goes for crumpets.0

I thought you just put a cross on it.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

My grandson doesn't have butter so has jam or Nutella !Focus on contribution instead of the impressiveness of consumption to see the true beauty in people.0

If it's really hot and cross, Vallium works quite well.0
