Strawberry Shortcake, GF, V, OF

Strawberry shortcake is an amazing dessert - sweet and satisfying, a celebration of gorgeous berries, but not too heavy.  I often make a double batch because it is so good for breakfast, too.

Ingredients:
Dry
1 1/2 cups oat flour
1 cup tapioca starch
1/2 cup potato starch or coconut flour
1/2 cup coconut sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon orange zest
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Wet
1 3/4 cup purified water
1 ripe banana
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
2 Tablespoons flax meal
3 teaspoons vanilla
15 drops liquid stevia

Whipped Cream
1 cup coconut cream (the thick white cream that floats to the top of coconut mylk)
2 teaspoons coconut sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground chia seeds
10 drops liquid stevia

1 pint strawberries

Directions:
Refrigerate coconut cream in a metal or glass bowl for at least a few hours.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix well.  Combine all wet ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.  Let sit 15 minutes to thicken.  Combine wet and dry ingredients until you have a uniform batter.  Bake in muffin tins (I prefer silicone to avoid extra oils) for 20 minutes.  Let cool before eating, they will firm up a little on the inside as they cool.  Combine Whipped Cream ingredients in chilled bowl and beat with a hand mixer for several minutes, until it starts to thicken and expand.  Slice strawberries.  To assemble the cakes, layer one cake with strawberries and Whipped Cream and eat immediately!
