Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 190 degrees and grease a muffin tin (or line with muffin liners).
2. Combine almond meal, tapioca flour, coconut flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, mixed spice and salt in a large bowl and whisk together.
3. In a separate bowl whisk together eggs, maple syrup, and coconut oil. Add this mixture to almond meal mixture, stirring well to incoprorate.
4. Fold in stewed apples and let mix sit for 2-3 minutes for coconut flour to absorb moisture. At this point, if your batter looks a little too thick and chunky, add in almond milk, a tablespoon at a time.
5. Distribute batter evenly amongst muffin tins and begin making streusel. Combine all streusel ingredients in a small bowl, cutting the butter in with your fingers until only pea-sized chunks remain.
6. Sprinkle a bit of streusel over each muffin. Bake for 20-30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in tin for 5 minutes then remove and cool on a cooling rack.
