As I've said before, I always look for something new to incorporate into my daily breakfast. I mean who wants to eat eggs everyday? Yea, they're okay but everyday becomes old and boring real quick. The way I see it is if it has good nutritional ingredients in it then why does it matter at which time of day you eat it? Every meal should have good nutritional ingredients in it even your desserts. Why, you ask? because every time you put anything in your mouth you are fueling your body with energy and adding nutrients to help your body function and repair. Depending on what you feed it decides on how well it will work. For example if you add some maca powder into this recipe you will benefit your endocraine system which regulates your hormones to name one of macas many advantages. That is the same with cinnamon, cocount and almond flour, nutmeg, quality salt and more. And these are the ingredients you're putting in to your "cake" so don't feel guilty!
Where as a normal cake filled with regular flour and sugar has tons of carbohydrates that limit you to a small piece which is still going to spike your blood pressure making you feel like crud and leading you to be preprediabetic with several health problems. I know this sounds extreme but why take the risk when you don't have to?

Preheat oven to 350F (180C) and grease up your pan. Whisk together the dry ingredients in one bowl, almond flour, coconut flour, flax meal, baking powder, sweetener, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. In another bowl, add the eggs, melted butter and vanilla stirring together until smooth. Combine the ingredients and spoon the batter into the pan. In another small bowl mix the crumble toppings together and spoon over the batter evenly. The time will depend how deep your pan is, I used a standard pie pan and baked for 25 minutes or until lightly browned and when I inserted a tooth pick it came out clean.
