"Coconutty" Berry Cake

I love berries in any cake and also love the healthy touch of Chia seeds and Brown Rice in this recipe, which I found on the Recipe Community by the Foodie Mum. I have changed a couple of the ingredients and this recipe has now become a favourite in our house for our regular weekend morning teas.
