Nutella Swirl Muffins

Chocolate & hazelnuts. Next to peanut butter, Nutella is right up there as being one of the best sweet things in a jar. In fact, it’s a pantry staple in my kitchen and when I was organizing my pantry in my new home, it dawned on my that I have a jar of Nutella that needs to be played with. And with that, these Nutella Swirl Muffins came about. These were so easy to make, I wondered why I didn’t make a larger batch to freeze for easy morning breakfasts or mid-day snacks. A light, vanilla muffin batter is carefully swirled with Nutella before baking up to delicious sweetness…

This was so easy to make and they were a hit for a coworker’s birthday breakfast celebration. She happens to be a die hard Nutella fan and it was a no-brainer that these muffins would be something she’s appreciate and enjoy. When I brought them to work, I gave one to my fellow gluten free buddy. She loved it… so much so that I made her another batch later that week so she could freeze them and have her fill of gf deliciousness. But aside from my gf friend enjoying them, the rest of the team who had one couldn’t believe they were gluten free. Alas, it’s another affirmation that baking gluten free doesn’t have to taste bad!
