The Boston Bun is traditionally made with mashed potatoes, which were used as a cheaper substitute for flour in the early twentieth century. Don't dismiss it until you've given it a shot! This fruit bun is light and moist thanks to the addition of mashed potatoes. It's impossible not to love this classic sweet treat when it's topped with a thick and fluffy icing.
