Hot German bread one left out (6)
I believe the answer is:
stolen
'hot' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'german bread one left out' is the wordplay.
'german bread' becomes 'stollen' (I've seen this before).
'one left' becomes 'l' (common abbreviation).
'out' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'stollen' with 'l' taken out is 'STOLEN'.
(Other definitions for stolen that I've seen before include "Taken without right" , "Lifted" , "Robbed" , "Taken by thieves" , "Pilfered" .)
