Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat the oven to 350 F. In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients.
Add the eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix with a rubber spatula until smooth.
Fold in the chopped cranberries and pecans, mixing until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Line an 8-inch x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan and spread it out evenly with a rubber spatula.
Sprinkle half of the unsweetened shredded coconut evenly over the top of the batter.
Zest an orange over the coconut, spreading the zest evenly across the surface.
Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the pan from the oven.
Sprinkle the remaining shredded coconut over the warm squares, gently pressing it down so it sticks. Let the squares cool completely before removing from the pan and cutting into 16 squares. Enjoy!

Notes

Make sure the squares are fully cooled before cutting to avoid crumbling. These squares make a fantastic make-ahead dessert for holiday gatherings-store them in the fridge or freezer and serve when ready. Feel free to garnish with an extra sprinkle of orange zest for a festive touch! For more information, tips and variations please review the recipe video and content above and below the recipe card.
