Crumble Topping

Make the topping first: In a small bowl, mix together the almond flour, melted coconut oil, coconut sugar, and ground cinnamon for the crumble topping.
Store the crumble mixture in the fridge while preparing the coffee cake batter.

Coffee Cake

Preheat the oven to 350 F and line or grease an 8x8 baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the wet ingredients: coconut oil, maple syrup, eggs and apple cider vinegar, until everything is well combined.
In a seperate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: almond flour, tapioca flour, baking soda.
Gently combine the wet and dry ingredients together with a spatula. Be sure not to over mix the batter.
Fold in banana chunks, walnuts and chocolate chips. Gently combine without crushing the bananas.
Pour the batter into the parchment paper-lined 8x8 baking dish.
Remove the crumble topping from the fridge and use your hands to combine smaller crumbles together to create larger pieces and layer them on top of the gingerbread cake batter.
Bake the cake for 35 - 38 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. *

Notes

*If you are testing with a toothpick, the middle part might come out a bit moist due to the crumble topping, check a couple places of the cake (from middle to close to the edge).
