- 2 tablespoon vegan margarine (earth balance or coconut oil)
Wet Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup canola oil or coconut oil

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F
- Add muffin liners to a standard muffin pan.
- In a small bowl, combine flour, almond flour, sugar, chopped nuts, cardamon, salt and plant-based margarine. Mix until the mixture resembles a crumb-like consistency. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, mix the milk and lemon juice. Set aside for 4-5 minutes until the milk begins to curdle.
- Add the remaining wet ingredients: apple sauce, vanilla, and oil. Stir gently to combine. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, almond flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and cardamon. Stir well to combine.
- Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture. Gently stir to combine. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
- Gently fold in the fresh strawberries.
- Divide the batter equally among 12 muffin cups.
- Sprinkle the crumb topping on the top of each muffin.
- The oven should be preheated now. Bake at 375F for 20-22 minutes until a toothpick comes out “almost” clean. It can have a couple of tiny crumbs attached.
- Transfer to a cooling rack. Be sure to cool completely before freezing.
