Instructions
Bake the cake:

- In a separate bowl, mix together the maple syrup, vegetable oil, flaxseed mixture, white wine vinegar, vanilla extract, and almond milk. Mix them well.
- Combine together the oat flour mixture and maple syrup mixture until everything is incorporated.
- Pour and spread the mixtures into a prepared baking tin and bake for 25 minutes or until the inserted toothpick comes out clean; remove and allow them to cool.
Meanwhile, prepare the cranberry chia jam:
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add the water, cranberries, orange juice, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Cook them for 8 minutes.
- Allow them to cool and transfer them into a mason jar. Set them aside.
To make the dark chocolate coating:
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat, boil the almond milk until it boils; add the dark chocolate and maple syrup. Boil until smooth. Remove from the heat.
Now, it's time to assemble!
- On a flat surface, place the cooled baked cake and cut them out into 12 shapes using a mini round cutter,
- Scoop 1 tablespoon of cranberry jam using a spoon, place it on top of the round cut cake, and place the other round cut cake on top. (Just like the picture)

Notes
