Prepare the strawberry jam: In a small saucepan, combine the thawed, chopped strawberries, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1 tbsp raw honey. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until the strawberries thicken.
3
Remove from heat and set the jam aside.
4
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and mix in the mashed bananas, cashew butter, and 1 tbsp maple syrup until smooth and thick.
5
In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, baking powder, and sea salt.
6
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, stirring until fully combined. The batter will be thick due to the coconut flour.
7
Spread the batter evenly in the parchment-lined baking dish.
8
Dollop the strawberry jam over the batter, and then use a toothpick to swirl it throughout.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
