The Best Paleo Friendly Apple Cinnamon Bread Recipe

0 Pre-heat oven to 350 fahrenheit. Grease a loaf pan with neutral oil or butter & then line it with parchment paper.
1 Reduce the apple juice. On the stovetop over medium-high heat, pour 1 cup of apple juice into a pot, adding the whole cinnamon sticks, and allow to come to a boil. Once apple juice is boiling, reduce heat to a simmer and reduce apple juice down to 2/3 cup and set aside to cool.
2 Prepare the apples if using. If you're adding apple chunks to the batter, peek & dice up 1/2 of a medium apple into small chunks. Toss the apple chunks in 1 tsp of cinnamon & 1 tbsp of coconut sugar & set aside.
3 Mix the dry ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, protein powder (if using), spices, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
4 Mix the wet ingredients. Add coconut sugar & softened butter to a large mixing bowl & cream together with an electric hand mixer for about 30 seconds. Add in eggs, vanilla and apple juice, continuing to mix until fully combined.
5 Make the batter. Next, slowly begin to add dry ingredients little by little, mixing on medium low speed until fully incorporated. Gently fold in the apple chunks with a spatula. Spoon the batter into the prepared pan & smooth over the top with the back of a spatula.
6 Make the crumble topping. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, cinnamon and coconut sugar. Add softened butter & gently mix with your hands or a fork until topping becomes crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the top of the batter. 
7 Bake. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until topping is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
