I made this Gingerbread slice with orange cashew cream icing over the weekend, and it filled the house with delightful aromas. Put on some music and get baking.

I bet you and your family will love it as much as we did.

Here’s the recipe.

  • 1 1/2 cups almond meal
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 125 g butter or coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  1. Mix the almond meal, coconut flour, sugar and spices in a bowl.
  2. Whisk the eggs, coconut oil or butter, vanilla and coconut milk in a bowl using your mix master.
  3. Gently mix the wet and dry ingredients together.
  4. Bake in a lined slice tray for 20 minutes. (180 degrees)

The orange cashew cream icing…

Soak 1 cup of cashews in water (Just enough water to cover the cashews) for a couple of hours.

Add 2 Tbs melted coconut oil, orange rind and a squeeze of orange juice, one date and a splash of coconut milk.

Blitz in the bullet blender until smooth.

I put mine in the fridge to thicken and then spread it on the slice when it is completely cool.

Enjoy,
