Gluten Free Pumpkin Nut Muffins

1 1/2 c Tom Sawyer Gluten Free Flour
1/2 c buckwheat flour
1/2 t salt
1/2 t baking powder
1 t baking soda
1 t cloves
1 t cinnamon
1 t nutmeg
3/4 c coconut oil
3/4 c maple syrup
2 eggs
1 15-ounce can pumpkin

Topping:
3 T Tom Sawyer Gluten Free Flour
3 T coconut oil
1/2 t cinnamon
1/4 c demera sugar
1/4 c chopped walnuts or pecans

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line muffin pan with muffin papers. Begin with the topping: Combine the flour, coconut oil, demerara sugar, chopped nuts and cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside. Move on to the muffins: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside. In a separate bowl, combine the coconut oil, maple syrup, eggs, and pumpkin. Mix well. Pour into flour mixture  and mix with a spatula until just combined. Fill each muffin tin about ¾ full. Sprinkle topping evenly over batter. Bake for about 30 minutes. Let the muffins cool on rack for about 10 minutes, then turn out onto rack to cool completely.
