I did all my usual holiday baking before Christmas...cookies, truffles, etc. But needed a "New Year's" gift for a friend who had been away that week. So, I came up with this festive, tasty treat (that's crispy/moist and sweet/tart in all the right places) with what I had left on hand in the freezer and pantry.
Makes 2 large loaves.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix all in order:
2 cups maple syrup
1/2 c melted coconut oil
1/4 c ground flaxseed mixed w/ 3/4 c water
7-8 frozen bananas, peeled and chopped/mashed
7-oz bag of sweetened coconut flakes
1 c sliced almonds
1 c frozen cranberries
2 tsp vanilla
2 c GF All-Purpose Baking Flour (I used Bob's Red Mill brand)
2 c oat flour
2 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp xanthan gum
Sugar, for sprinkling
Pour into two loaf pans that have been coated with baking spray.
Sprinkle tops with sugar, and bake for 1 hour.
Remove from oven, and let cool in pans for 10-15 minutes before turning out onto cooling rack.
