- 2 cups AP flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 5-6 ripe bananas
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/3 cup nutella or more to taste
Preheat oven to 350 and line muffin pan with liners. In a stand mixer, beat the bananas, sugar and vanilla on medium high until the banana is well mashed. Turn to low and drizzle in the melted butter.
Add in the eggs one and a time on medium speed and mix for 3 minutes. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add to the mixer on low and mix until just combined. Hand mix a bit to be sure it is all mixed together.
Place nutella in a microwave safe bowl and heat for about 30 seconds to make it a bit more fluid. Fill muffin cups 3/4 full with batter and then dollop some nutella over the top and swirl it in with a knife. I didn't swirl mine too much because I wanted some pockets of nutella.
Bake for 15-18 minutes (mine took about 17) until they are browning on the edges and the batter is set. You will still get nutella on your toothpick if you check these with a toothpick, but you shouldn't see any raw batter. Allow them to cool for a 5 minutes and then remove them to a cooling rack to fully cool.
