## Equipment

- Food processor
- Muffin tin
- Oven

## Tips

- Dates are specifically used because they have a lower glycemic index, don't spike blood sugar as much, are high in potassium and fiber, and contribute to a nice and moist texture in the muffins.
- Adjust the number of dates based on your sweetness preference, as they come in different sizes.
- You can use almond butter or any other nut butter.
- You can use maple syrup or coconut sugar instead of dates.
- Adding a heavy sprinkle of salt enhances the flavor.
