There isn't a lot of fat, and because there aren't any emulsifying agents, you're going to lose a lot of the aqueous liquids as it bakes. Toss in having such a large volume of oats on top of the flour, then further adding a bunch of ingredients that are naturally quite dry (coconut, raisins, dates, dried figs), and I don't expect it to balance out very well. I could be mistaken, since I don't do a lot of vegan baking and the sheer volume of aqueous liquids might be enough to make up for it, but I would expect to at least need to soak the dried fruit beforehand to avoid giving up too much moisture, and a quarter cup of oil doesn't seem like it'll be enough to carry it. --- This is my signature.
