- Preheat oven to 190C/375F and lightly grease a 6-hole jumbo muffin tin.
- Wash the blood orange under hot water and rub dry. Finely grate the peel and squeeze 3 tablespoons of juice from the blood orange.
- Mix together the flour, blood orange zest, ground almonds, ground poppy seeds, chia seeds, and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.
- In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut oil, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, Greek yoghurt and blood orange juice. Working very quickly, pour the wet ingredients into the dry and barely mix together with a fork. Don't overmix it.
- Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin. Combine all the ingredients for the streusel and divide it among the muffins. Bake in the center of hot oven for 25-30 minutes until risen and browned.
