• 2 large organic eggs
• 1/2 TBSP vanilla
• 2 1/3 cups almond flour
• 1/3 cup tapioca flour

PREPARATION:

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF and line a 8×4 medium loaf pan with parchment paper; set aside.
2. In large bowl whisk together pumpkin puree and maple syrup, then eggs and vanilla until smooth.
3. Add almond flour, tapioca flour, baking soda and salt, using large silicone spatula or spoon to combine.
4. Make streusel topping (optional): Use fork to combine almond flour, sugar, spice, salt and coconut oil or butter until meal-like texture forms. Portion out coconut oil into 6, 1/2 tablespoons, chilling before combining.
5. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan, covering with streusel if using and bake for 20 minutes uncovered, then add foil for the last 20-25 minutes, to prevent the top from browning too quickly
