For the Muffins

2 cups Almond Flour Provides structure and moisture; substitute with oat flour for a nut-free option.
1 cup Oat Flour Contributes to a light texture; can be made by grinding whole oats into a fine powder.

1 cup Dates Acts as a natural sweetener; use Medjool dates for the best results.
1/2 cup Cacao Powder Provides a rich chocolate flavor; unsweetened cocoa powder can also be used as a substitute.
1 tbsp Baking Powder Helps the muffins rise and achieve a fluffy texture.
1 cup Dark Chocolate Chips Adds indulgent chocolate pieces throughout; optional but highly recommended.
