Kitchener bun

The Kitchener bun is a type of doughnut made and sold in South Australia since 1915. It consists of a bun sometimes baked, sometimes fried, made from a sweet yeasted dough similar to that used for making doughnuts, split and then filled with raspberry or strawberry jam and cream, most often with a dusting of sugar on the top. The Kitchener bun resembles the Berliner, a doughnut of German origin – although distinguished from it by an open face and the use of more cream than jam – and was, in fact, known as such until anti-German sentiment in World War I led to its renaming in honour of the British field marshal Lord Kitchener. In a 1930 recipe the jam is sealed into the doughnut before deep-frying in fat, and there is no mention of cream until 1934.
