  • 6 ounces dark chocolate chunks
  • 1 1/2 cup (360g) orange juice
  • 1/2 cup (130g) runny tahini*
  • 1 1/4 cup (300g) almond milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp orange zest
  • 2 1/2 cups (300g) gluten-free flour
  • 1/4 cup (30g) coconut flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • Optional: 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups (140g) fresh cranberries
  • Orange Glaze
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2–3 tbsp orange juice

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Blend pitted Natural Delights Medool Dates with orange juice until smooth.

Add tahini, almond milk, and vanilla. Blend again until combined.

In a bowl, whisk together flours, orange zest, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Add the wet ingredients and stir until combined with no lumps.

Transfer to a well-greased bundt pan (10 cup capacity). Smooth the top with a spatula.

Bake 45-50 minutes until edges are browned and a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool 15 minutes before flipping on a cooling rack to cool completely.

For the glaze, whisk orange juice into the powdered sugar adding more orange juice if needed to get a thick but drizzle-able consistency.

Drizzle glaze on cooled cake, slice and serve.

Note *If you want to use another nut butter, use 1/4 cup nut/seed butter of choice and 1/4 cup coconut oil

Enjoy!
