Fruit puree is lower in sugar and easy to make.

Proof the yeast by combining warm almond milk with yeast and letting it sit for 15 minutes.

Mix salt into the flour in a bowl.

In a stand mixing bowl, combine the proofed yeast, apple sauce, olive oil, and honey.

Sift the flour with salt and add to the mixture.

Knead the dough in the stand mixer for about 15 minutes until it is elastic and soft.

Let the dough rest in a lightly oiled bowl covered with saran wrap and a kitchen towel until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and shape them into balls, letting them rise again for 30 minutes.

Prepare fillings, including date paste with cinnamon and cardamom, and a mixture of raisins, chocolate chips, and crushed almonds.

Roll out the dough to about 24 cm long and 10 cm wide, generously covering it with olive oil.

Spread the fillings over the rolled dough and roll it up from the bottom.

Cut the rolled dough in half and twist the layers to create a rose shape.

Place the shaped cruffins into a muffin tray lined with foil and cover them to rise again.
