## Ingredients

- dates
- flour
- milk
- yeast
- sugar
- sweetener
- egg yolk
- melted and cooled butter
- applesauce
- salt

## Instructions

1. To start, put your dates and boiling water in a pan to make the date caramel and cook on the heat.
2. Cook the tangzhong with some flour and milk to keep the rolls softer for longer.
3. Heat the rest of the milk until it's hot enough to bathe in.
4. Once the tangzhong is thick and cooled, add the bath milk, yeast, sugar, sweetener, tangzhong, egg yolk, melted and cooled butter, applesauce and salt into a mixer.
5. Mix to combine.
6. Add flour and mix on low.
7. Knead the dough by hand on a floured surface or with a hook for about 8 to 10 minutes until it comes together in a smooth little dough ball, or at least something ball adjacent.
8. Oil a bowl and pop the dough in.
9. Sit it in the sink with a bit of boiling water and cover it with a chopping board to trap the heat.
10. Leave it for 45 minutes.
11. Check on the dough and leave it for another 15 minutes or until it has doubled in size.
12. While it's proving, you can make the luxurious date filling.
13. Once doubled, flour your surface and roll the dough out with a rolling pin.
14. Spread over the filling, leaving no filling on the left side to form a margin.
15. Roll it up tightly along the long edge and pinch the left edge to seal.
16. Cut off the ends, mark into thirds, then cut those thirds into thirds again to give you 9 even rolls.
17. Grease your baking dish, pop them in, and prove them again for 30 to 40 minutes until they puff up to about 1 to 1 1/2 times their size.
