Nutella Monkey Muffins {Breakfast Contributor}
categories: My Favorites
Hey y'all! I am so excited to be here as the breakfast contributor for Carrie!! My name is Jaime & I'm the wife and momma behind Mom's Test Kitchen.
So I need to make a confession to y'all. I am soooo not a breakfast eater. My breakfast consists of a really big glass of sweet tea most mornings. But I do have this little precious 2 year old that likes to eat before noon so I am always on the lookout for healthy, kid-friendly breakfast options! This muffin ~ or cupcake as she calls it ~ has been a big hit!
NUTELLA MONKEY MUFFINS
YIELD: 6 dozen
INGREDIENTS:
- 1/2 cup
butter, softened - 1 cup
brown sugar - 2
eggs - 2
bananas - 1/3 cup
peanut butter - 1/3 cup
Nutella - 1 tablespoon
milk - 1 teaspoon
vanilla extract - 2 cups
flour - 1 teaspoon
baking soda - 1/2 cup
chocolate chips
INSTRUCTIONS:
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter & brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until well incorporated after each one. Beat in the bananas, peanut butter, Nutella, milk & vanilla. Combine the flour & baking soda; add to the creamed mixture just until moistened. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Fill paper-lined mini muffin cups 3/4 of the way full ~ I used a 1/2 tablespoon measuring spoon. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for about 5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cupcakes are freezer friendly: to freeze simply wrap the muffins in foil & freeze for up to 3 months. To use frozen muffins: thaw at room temperature
