I have added little baking powder in the recipe, you may skip it altogether. (the muffins will rise less if you skip Baking powder, but there would be no change in taste). Dates are exceptionally nutritious and good for brain development and overall growth of babies. Curd is used as an egg replacer in this recipe. Cinnamon powder gives a nice flavor to these muffins and the almonds contribute a nutty flavor and crunch. Whether you serve these delicious treats with milk for breakfast or as a snack, kids are going to love them!
