Date Muffins
Deliciously moist, healthy date muffins with just 6 ingredients — you’ll want to make them on repeat!
Servings: 10 muffins
Equipment
- muffin baking tray
Ingredients
- 13 medjool dates
- 1 cup warm milk
- ¼ cup smooth almond butter i recommend almond butter over peanut butter to keep the taste subtle and not an overpowering nutty flavour
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup self raising flour
- Pinch of salt
- Chocolate chips for mixing and topping
Instructions
- Remove the pits from the Medjool dates, place them in a bowl, then pour warm milk over them and leave to soak for 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, add the soaked dates and milk to a blender along with the smooth almond butter and blend until completely smooth.
- Pour the mixture into a large bowl, add the remaining ingredients, and mix until well combined.
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Lightly grease a muffin tray with butter, divide the batter evenly between the moulds, and sprinkle chocolate chips on top if you want extra chocolate.
- Bake for around 12 minutes, checking after 10 minutes and returning to the oven for an extra 1–2 minutes if needed. Cooking them any longer will completely dry them out!
- Remove from the oven, allow the muffins to cool slightly, then enjoy.
