How to Make Muffins
Be sure to scroll down to the recipe card to get the measurements and full instructions!
- The most important thing with making muffins is not over mixing the batter. If you do the muffins will be tough.
- To make sure that muffins are tender, start by mixing the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
- Measure all of the liquid ingredients in a liquid measuring cup.
- Stir the milk mixture into the flour and stir until just combined.
- An ice cream scoop ensures that all of the muffins are the same size and it doesn’t make a mess of your muffin tin.
- Spoon in Nutella into the center of each muffins and use a toothpick, knife, or bamboo skewer to swirl around.
- Bake until a tester comes out clean. You will have chocolate on the tester, but you want to make sure there isn’t any muffin batter.
- Let them cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes and then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Tips
- Be careful not to overmix your batter. This is why mixing in the Nutella after they are in the muffin cups is such a big deal. Muffin batter is more delicate that it looks. If you want light and fluffy muffins, you can’t stir too much, or the glutens develop in the flour faster than they should, and it makes your muffins tough and not a good texture.
Don’t like Nutella? Don’t worry, you could use peanut butter, biscoff spread or any else that is this same consistency that you swirl in the batter.
