Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of rolled oats, 0.5 cup of packed brown sugar, 1.5 teaspoons of baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon of baking soda, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Mix well.
In another bowl, whisk together 0.5 cup of unsweetened applesauce, 0.25 cup of melted coconut oil, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in 0.75 cup of almond milk, 1.5 cups of chopped apples, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice into the batter.
Fill each muffin liner with the batter until about two-thirds full.
To prepare the topping, in a small bowl, combine 0.5 cup of flour, 0.5 cup of rolled oats, 0.25 cup of packed brown sugar, and 0.5 teaspoon of cinnamon.
Cut in 0.25 cup of solid coconut oil using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the topping evenly over the muffins.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
