Equipment

  • 1 Muffin pan
  • Hand mixer
  • Wire Cooling Rack

Ingredients

  • 1¾ cup flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 10-12 tbsp Nutella, room temperature, as needed

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Coat a muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  • In a separate large bowl, beat the sugar, butter, oil, eggs, and vanilla with a hand mixer until creamy and smooth.
  • Add the flour mixture to the batter until just combined.  
  • Spoon the batter evenly into the muffin pan. Side Note: This recipe only made 10 regular-sized muffins for me.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of Nutella over each cup of muffin batter, then swirl with a wooden skewer or chopstick.
  • Bake for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue to cook for 13-15 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean.  Side Note: Starting at a higher temperature and then reducing it helps make the muffin dome.
  • Remove from the oven and cool in the pan for a few minutes, then move them to a wire cooling rack to finish cooling.
