What you'll need:
2 tsp instant dried yeast
1 1/2c warm water
1 TBS raw honey
1 tsp stevia
2 dates
2 tsp mixed spice
1/2 c sultanas
1/2c dried apricots
80g organic coconut oil
2 eggs
4c plain gluten free flour
1/4c rice milk
White Cross on the top
2 TBS rice flour
A little water
Method
1. Place the dates in the blender and chop
2. Add yeast, warm water, stevia and honey and blend until mixed up
3. Set aside in a bowl for 10 minutes
4. Place the other ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly
5. Add the yeast mixture to step 4, mix well and leave to rest for 5 minutes
6. Cover the mixture, then leave in a warm place until the mixture has doubled in size
7. Break the mixture up into bun-sized portions and place on a lined tray close together (I made my very rustic and just put them there with a spoon rather than rolling into a ball)
8. Leave the dough to rest for 5 minutes
9. If you wish, add a cross placing the mixture into a zip-back and cut a small hole in the corner. Pipe cross across the top.
10. Sprinkle / spray with water to help the dough go brown
11. Bake in the oven at 200 degrees for 10 minutes
12. Turn the oven down to 180 degrees and bake for a further 15 - 20 minutes
13. Remove from the oven, and leave to rest for 5 minutes before serving
