Soft, fluffy, and delicately flavored with vanilla and almonds, these muffins hide a gooey surprise inside: a rich spoonful of Nutella! Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or a sweet treat with coffee.
Ingredients (for about 6–8 muffins)
-
120 g all-purpose flour
-
50 g almond powder (ground almonds)
-
50 g sugar
-
1 sachet (≈ 8 g) baking powder
-
2 eggs
-
100 g plain yogurt (plant-based or regular)
-
1 tsp vanilla extract (or natural vanilla flavoring)
-
~2 tsp Nutella (or similar spread) per muffin
Instructions
1. Prepare the Batter:
-
Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
-
In a bowl, mix flour, almond powder, sugar, and baking powder.
-
In another bowl, whisk eggs, yogurt, and vanilla.
-
Combine wet and dry ingredients, mixing until smooth.
2. Fill the Muffins:
-
Line a muffin tin with paper liners.

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of batter into each liner.
-
Add 2 teaspoons of Nutella in the center of each.
-
Cover with more batter until the liners are about ¾ full.
3. Bake:

Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden and a toothpick inserted into the edge (not the Nutella center) comes out clean.
4. Cool & Serve:
-
Let cool slightly before removing from the tin.
-
Serve warm for a molten center, or at room temperature for a fudgy surprise inside.
