Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Nutella Banana Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a stand mixer, combine the mashed ripe bananas, melted butter, light brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix on medium speed for about 3 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, mixing on low speed just until no dry pockets remain visible.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about three-quarters full with the batter. Once filled, drop a teaspoon of warmed Nutella on the surface of each muffin.
  6. Using a toothpick or skewer, gently swirl the Nutella into the batter of each muffin cup.
  7. Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes.
  8. Remove the muffin pan from the oven and allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
