These Banana Nutella Muffins are moist, tender, and feature a gooey Nutella center that makes every bite irresistible. Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dessert!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon Nutella per muffin
  • 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup (50g) brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • ½ cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Whisk until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined—don’t overmix.
  5. Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter. Place about 1 teaspoon of Nutella in the center, then cover with more batter until the cup is about ¾ full.
  6. Optional: Sprinkle chopped walnuts on top for added texture and flavor.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the edge (not the Nutella center) comes out clean.
  8. Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely—or enjoy warm for the ultimate gooey Nutella experience!

Notes

[‘Don’t overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins.’, ‘Use ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and flavor.’, ‘Freeze small dollops of Nutella beforehand to keep the center intact during baking.’, ‘Adjust sugar levels based on the sweetness of your bananas.’]
