Double Chocolate Nutella Muffins

Muffins, especially chocolate muffins will always be my first love and I will always have a soft spot for them. Chocolate muffins are the first thing I ever baked.

They are so easy to make and you can basically add everything you want in them. Everything, I’m not joking. Did you know that you can make muffins out of..omelet? Yes, that’s true. You can basically put everything you want in your muffin pan and make a muffin out of it! That’s how fun it is.

I’ve been making muffins for a long, long time and I tried out a lot of recipes and I will continue to do so, it’s just so fun trying out new recipes. So when I am telling you that these are the best muffins I ever made, you’ve gotta trust me. The texture is perfect, the taste is divine, not too sweet but sweet enough, stuffed with chocolate chunks and with an oozing nutella center. I’m telling you, you just can’t go wrong with these.

I don’t know if you remember or if you tried my Nutella brownies recipe, which is one of my favorite recipes and as much as I love brownies, these nutella muffins are way, way better. But that’s probably because I have a thing with muffins!

I really hope you will try this recipe, it is super easy to make, you don’t need any fancy equipment at all and it’s only gonna take you about half an hour. Let’s get to work!

Recipe Notes

* If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by simply measuring 1 cup (240 ml) of milk and stir 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, then it's ready to use.
