Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, and salt. Whisk to eliminate any lumps.

In a small bowl, mix the coconut sugar with the remaining 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
Step 7
Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar generously over the tops of the batter in each muffin cup.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 9
Remove the buns from the oven and let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
