Preheat the oven to 205°.
Make the espresso garnish mixing together all the ingredients.
Make the streusel garnish mixing together all the ingredients using your fingers or a fork.
Mix together all the and, in a separate bowl, all the liquid ingredients, but the grated apple.
Then, stir the egg mixture into the flour mixture until just combined, folding in the apple at last.
Spoon the mixture into 16 muffin tins untill you reach half of the quantity it can contain, sprinkle each muffin with 2 teaspoons of espresso garnish and swirl with a spoon to mix the mixture and the garnish, add some mixture more, then fill up the tins with the streusel garnish.
