Nutella Muffins

Teresa Ambra

Oh my goodness, Nutella Muffins are heavenly. Yes, really! I have a confession to make. I’ve never tasted anything with Nutella before this. Never even tried it. Not once. Quite frankly, I wondered what all the fuss was about. Now I know. Chocolate and hazelnuts in a rich, decadent nut butter. Yes, please! Nutella Muffins are not simply heavenly, you will not be able to stop eating them once you start!

Our pastor loves Nutella. We were at a Bible study one night having potluck and he talked about how much he loved Nutella. Yes, he could sit down and just eat it with a spoon. (Forget the fact that it’s not healthy, okay?) Well, I tucked that conversation in the back of my mind. When they had some hard times with family members in the hospital back in August, I decided to make up a Taco Black Bean Chili, Buttermilk Cornbread and something made with nutella. I chose these Nutella Muffins. Boy, am I glad I did. They were nothing short of awesome!

For those of you who are following my blog, I’ve been in the middle of a transition to a new theme for a few weeks. Unfortunately, not all the recipes transferred over as easily as I would have liked. There are some with ingredients missing or instructions missing.

My youngest son, who usually fixes all this stuff just had their fourth baby so he is too busy to fix it. I am going back through and correcting each individual recipe by hand. So far I’m only about a third of the way through 1,200 recipes. So, if you are looking at a recipe and it seems odd, or part of the instructions are missing, then email me and I’ll be sure to fix it as soon as possible.

When I made these muffins, I didn’t really measure the amount of Nutella I dolloped on top of each muffin. I basically eye-balled it and put what I thought seemed like a good amount. I also recommend that you use a bamboo skewer to swirl the Nutella into the batter rather than a toothpick. The swirls will be deeper and thicker and you won’t have it gobbed on your hands.

For those of you looking for a Nutella Muffin recipe to die for, I can’t recommend this simple and easy recipe enough. If you’re a Nutella lover, then you’ll drool over these muffins for sure. And, you’ll probably want more, more more! 🙂

Add UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour. Bleached flour toughens baked goods.

Dollop about a tablespoon of Nutella filling over top of each muffin. Using a bamboo skewer, swirl the Nutella into each muffin.

Equipment

  • 1 12-tin regular muffin pan or 8-tin extra large muffin pan
  • 1 large mixing bowl
  • 1 wooden spoon
  • 1 bamboo skewer to swirl the nutella in the muffin batter
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • 1 electric mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter at room temperature (1 stick)
  • 1/4 cup canola oil or coconut oil
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 3/4 cups UNBLEACHED all-purpose flour (bleached flour toughens baked goods)
  • 2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1/4-1/2 cup Nutella at room temperature

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°.
  • Beat butter, oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Mix dry ingredients together and stir into wet mixture.
  • Spoon mixture into greased or paper-lined muffin tins.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of Nutella on top.
  • Swirl Nutella into muffin batter with bamboo skewer or toothpick.
  • Bake at 425° for 5 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to 350°.
  • Continue baking an additional 15-19 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Notes

NOTE: I did not measure the Nutella with a tablespoon. I dolloped in on so I may have used more than one tablespoon on each muffin.
 
NOTE: While I used two cups flour, you may find 1 3/4 cup provides a less dense muffin.
