An Ode to the Morning Bun

I fell in love with morning buns at La Farine bakery, right on the border between Berkeley and Oakland. Textbook puff pastry, with extra crispness and flavor from the spiced currant filling. So good you eat the crumbs that get scattered over the Sunday paper.

I second La Farine in the Bay Area. I discovered the morning buns just as I left the bay for college because its photo was featured in a "125 Best Things to Eat" article for San Francisco magazine, and now I have to make the trip there to savor them every time I'm home. I feel like the Tartine ones can't even compare. There's a recipe for them in the La Brea Bakery book of pastries that I've had my eye on for awhile...

Best morning bun, hands down, no competition is at Tartine Bakery in San Francisco. I mean, it's true that the best everything is at Tartine. So it stands to reason their morning bun would be the best, too. But really: they are the definition of perfect. YUM.

in Baltimore, you can find morning buns, and also teacakes (my favorite), and croissants, and pain au chocolat, and maple sticks, the list goes on and on (!!), at the weekend farmer's markets in Waverly and under the JFX. Bonjour Bakery also has them too! The farmer's market also has great coffee (Zeke's)!!

in D.C., I love the pain aux raisins from Marvelous Market for breakfast!

I recently had the good fortune of moving to an apartment around the block from Clear Flour. Morning Buns are only one of their many amazing offerings. And at Clear Flour, they're called Morning Buns because they're gone by noon!

Mmmm, I love morning buns. I haven't been able to find any in Baltimore -- makes me pine (again) for Florence, haha.They were called something different, though, I just can't remember what.

I first tried a morning bun at Macrina Bakery in Seattle. Amazing! I still dream about it. Does anyone have suggestions for where to get morning buns in NY?

whatever, this has been going on in Denmark for years and is commonly consumed as an easy breakfast for construction workers who wash it down with bad coffee and the occasional beer.

Thank you for your ode to the morning bun... or, more specifically, giving me a push to change it up! I'm such a devotee to pain au chocolat (occasionally being more modest with just a croissant) and I never stray. But, clearly, I should...
