Grease a cupcake tin with coconut oil and set aside. In a large bowl, mix the almond flours, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and ginger. Whisk together. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, egg and coconut oil. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and set aside for 5 minutes to hydrate. Preheat the oven to 325F.
