Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/2 cup pitted Medjool dates (softened)
- 2 tbsp almond butter
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (dairy-free if desired)

Instructions
- Line a mini muffin tin with liners.
- In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup until combined. Press into the bottom of each muffin liner to form a base. Freeze for 10 minutes.
