Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 325 °F.
2
Peel the bananas, break them into pieces and put them in a food processor. Add the eggs, coconut oil and maple syrup.
3
Peel the ginger, cut it into small pieces and add to the food processor with the cinnamon and the salt. Puree until smooth and transfer to a large bowl.
4
Using a spatula, stir in the almond meal, rolled oats , flaked coconut, pecans and dried cranberries.
5
Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan. Evenly divide the dates over the batter and press them in.
6
Bake the loaf for approx. 50 min. Near the end of the baking time, insert a skewer into the center of the loaf. If it comes out cleanly (or with just a few moist crumbs adhering to it), the loaf is done.

Tips
Slice the loaf, package each slice separately in plastic wrap and freeze them. The loaf will last for up to 3 months.
