Apple Almond Muffins

---

I had some almond flour (labeled as almond flour/meal) that i wanted to try, but i couldn't find a recipe that was really what i wanted, so i whipped this up patching a bunch of recipes together. Surprisingly, these came out great! If you don't have any almond flour, substitute regular flour. I had some ground nut/sugar/cardamom topping hanging around that i used, but feel free to leave the top bare or add the optional crunch topping listed below.
