BANANA NUTELLA MUFFINS

Filed under Breads
Ingredients

2 ripe, mashed bananas
2 cups flour
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup sour cream
3 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup Nutella

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. Whisk to combine well; set aside. In another bowl, lightly whisk the eggs. Stir in the sour cream, oil, mashed banana, and vanilla. Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients until just until moistened. Line a standard size muffin pan with papers, or spray with nonstick cooking spray.  Fill the prepared tins about 1/3 full with batter. Add one teaspoon Nutella and swirl in with a knife. Add additional batter so that muffin cups are about 2/3 full. Add another teaspoon of Nutella and swirl again. Bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Let's Dish
After repeatedly catching my son eating Nutella out of the jar with a spoon (and who could blame him?), I decided I better do something with it.  There are quite a few Nutella recipes online, but I wanted something simple and kid friendly. Nutella is kind of thick and doesn't swirl very well, but if you heat it up a bit, the swirling is easier.

Who Dished It Up First
I adapted this recipe from one I found at Simply Anne's.
