Banana Nutella Muffins

These days all I seem to be doing is watching Tiktok videos, posting on my instagram page and snacking on banana bread. Tiktok is fun and pure entertainment. I love the hilarious skits and challenges. The creativity and talent on there is amazing. I think I may just creating some tiktok videos 😉.

To kick off the week, I bring you another banana recipe. But this isn’t your regular banana bread recipe. It is super moist soft Nutella banana muffin. Where banana bread meets creamy chocolatey Nutella. A perfect blend of flavours. Turning your regular banana recipe into a decadent treat.

Magic Ingredients

Brown Sugar– The molasses in the brown sugar add flavour to the muffins.

Eggs– They create structure and stability within the batter and add moisture.

Nutella– They turn the muffin into a decadent treat. Melt the nutella in the microwave for 20 -30 seconds before swirling into the muffin batter.

Overripe Bananas– They are soft and add sweetness to the batter. Puree the bananas for an even moister muffins.

Browned Butter– This adds a rich nutty flavour the batter.

Yoghurt – It adds more moisture to the muffins. When used together with bicarbionate of soda it produces carbon dioxide, allowing the muffins to rise. Buttermilk is also a good substituition.

Tips for making these delicious Nutella and Banana Swirl Muffins

Use a kitchen scale– Do you want an evenly baked or cooked product? Use a kitchen scale. They provide more accurate results Measuring via volume can produce different results. Incorrectly measured dry ingredients (like flour) will make the muffins dry.

Batter– Do not overmix the batter. The more you mix, the more gluten develops. This will result in a rubbery muffins.

Filling the muffin cups– Fill the muffin liners to about 3/4 full. That leaves enough room for the muffins to rise and not spill over. I used extra large tulip muffin liners.

How to freeze any left over muffins

These muffins can be frozen and enjoyed later. Before freezing, let the muffins cool completely. Wrap individual muffins in cling film or plastic wrap and place in zip-lock bag before putting it in the freezer. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. When you are ready to eat the muffin take it out of the freezer the night before and allow it thaw on the counter top.
