Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425° F and place muffin liners in the pan.
  2. In a small bowl, use a fork to combine the crumble ingredients until it resembles chunky sand. Set aside.
  3. In another small bowl, combine the Swerve, Confectioners and 2 tbsp heavy cream and mix until smooth. Add additional cream if needed to thin out. Set aside.
  4. In a large bowl sift together the dry ingredients for the muffins. In a small bowl whisk together the wet ingredients then add to the dry. Mix just until combined then divide the batter between the muffin cups.
  5. Transfer to the oven and bake for 5 minutes, lower heat to 350° F, top with crumble mixture and bake another 15 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before drizzling with icing.
