Instructions

PREHEAT oven to 350F / 180C (160C Fan) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
ADD apple juice and raisins to a small bowl. Cover with a plastic wrap and microwave for 45 seconds. Remove from the microwave and set aside to cool.
ADD the egg, coconut oil, apple cider vinegar, and spices to a large bowl. Mix well to combine. Add the artisan bread mix and rum and raisin mixture. Mix until combined. Let the dough sit for 5 minutes.
SCOOP dough using a 1/4 cup and roll into a balls. Arrange on the parchment-lined baking sheet.
BRUSH each bun with honey. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until slightly golden. Let cool completely.
ALLOW frosting to come to room temperature. Microwave for a few seconds and stir for extra spreadability.
TRANSFER frosting to a piping bag or Ziploc bag. If you are using a Ziploc bag, cut a corner off. Pipe it in a cross shape atop each bun.

NOTE: To prevent the dough from sticking to your hands, oil your hands with melted coconut oil.
