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!
