Yields1 Serving

Orange Cranberry Loaf
 1 ½ cups packed fine almond flour
  cup coconut flour
 1 tsp baking soda
 ½ tsp cinnamon
 ½ tsp salt
 3 eggs, room temperature
 ¼ cup honey
 3 tbsp coconut oil, melted and cooled
 ½ cup orange juice, freshly squeezed
 zest from a large orange
 ¼ tsp almond extract
 ¾ cup chopped cranberries
  cup chopped walnuts
Citrus Glaze
 ½ cup powdered sugar
 1 tbsp orange juice
 1 tsp orange zest

1

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and spray with nonstick cooking spray.

2

In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, honey, coconut oil, orange juice, orange zest, and almond extract.

3

Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix well. Fold in diced cranberries and walnuts. Pour batter into loaf pan and spread evenly smoothing the top. Bake for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow loaf to cool completely before removing from pan.

4

For the glaze: Mix powdered sugar, orange juice, and orange zest until smooth. You may need to add in more orange juice to thin out the glaze, but remember we want it to be a thicker glaze. Pour or drizzle over the top of the loaf and spread towards the sides. Slice and enjoy!
