Instructions
- Warm the coconut oil until liquid. Bring the milk to room temperature, stir in the vinegar, and let it stand for a few minutes to make a quick buttermilk.
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Whisk the coconut oil, buttermilk, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla. Add both flours, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and allspice; stir just until combined, then fold in the apples.
- Spoon the batter into a greased or lined 12-cup muffin tin. Stir the melted butter, white sugar, and cinnamon together, then spoon a little over each muffin.
- Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown and the tops spring back when lightly pressed. Cool briefly before serving.
