Description
Makes 10-12 muffins or one 9×4 loaf
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- Just under 1 cup milk
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1 ripe banana, mashed with a fork
- 1/2 cup Peanut Nutella or plain Nutella
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Line a standard muffin tin with muffin liners.
- Melt the 1/2 cup unsalted butter, the pour into a large mixing bowl to cool slightly.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk well to combine, and set aside.
- To the butter, add the sugar. Add the egg to a liquid measuring cup and then add milk to make one cup. Add this to the mixing bowl with the butter and sugar. Whisk well. Then add the 1 ripe banana, mashed with a fork, and whisk until everything is well combined.
- Finally, fold in the flour mixture, stopping when there are still a few streaks of dry flour left. Don’t over-mix.
- Separate about 1 cup of the batter and mix in the Nutella. It can help to microwave the Nutella for 30 seconds to make it easier to stir.
- Pour batter into the prepared muffin tin, alternating with globs of the Nutella batter, aiming for a marbled effect.
- Bake muffins for about 25-30 minutes, until the muffins are risen and golden brown on top, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
