Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease with coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and poppy seeds until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, beat the eggs lightly. Add the almond milk, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined, being careful not to overmix. The batter will be thick but smooth.
Divide the batter evenly between the 12 muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve your gluten-free, dairy-free almond poppy seed muffins as a snack, breakfast, or dessert. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
