Ingredients

For cupcakes

2 cups of gluten-free flakes
1/2 cup of raw almonds
5 tbsp coconut oil (melted)
2 tablespoons of maple syrup

For cranberries filling

2 cups of cranberries (fresh or frozen)
1 cup of water
1/4 cup of maple syrup
1 teaspoon of agar (replace with gelatin in a 1:1 ratio)

For chocolate filling

2/3 cup of coconut milk
1 1/2 cups of raw cashew nuts (soaked)
1 1/2 cups of cocoa butter
1/3 cup of maple syrup
Pinch of salt
4 tablespoons white chocolate (melted and cooled)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 320 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a food processor, pulse the oats and almonds together until combined. Add the melted coconut oil and maple syrup and pulse again until a dough forms.
Press the dough firmly into the cupcake molds.
Bake for 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
Let it cool for 5-10 minutes.
In a small saucepan, add cranberries, water, and maple syrup. Cook for 10-15 minutes on low to medium heat until the cranberries break down.
Blend the cranberries with a hand blender, adding water if the sauce is too thick.
Add one teaspoon of agar powder (or gelatin powder) and cook for another 5 minutes on low heat.
Leave to cool for a few minutes, then spread the cranberry sauce into 1/2 of the cups and put in the fridge to set for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the white chocolate layer. Melt the white chocolate and cocoa butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
Blend the cashews, maple syrup, and coconut milk in a food processor until smooth. Add the melted chocolate/cocoa butter and process until combined.
Pour the white chocolate mixture onto the cream cupcakes and leave to harden in the fridge for 2-3 hours.
Garnish with sugar-coated cranberries and white chocolate chips, and serve immediately.
