Yogurt Nutella Muffins
Easy Yogurt Nutella Muffins. This simple muffin recipe makes the perfect great grab and go breakfast or snack idea.
This might be on of my favorite muffin recipes that I have made in some time.
I just had one of these warm Nutella muffins fresh out of the oven, and I'm having a hard time not reaching for more. These Yogurt Nutella Muffins are kind of like a Nutella cake, but individually proportioned. The muffin tops are hard and crackly, while the center of the muffins are soft and fluffy. I made them for the first time last month, and my toddler has been requesting that I make them weekly. They are that good.
Yogurt Nutella Muffins Ingredients
The full list of ingredients for this muffin recipe kind of reads like the list of food always in my pantry. All you need is:
- unsalted butter
- Nutella (or any chocolate hazelnut spread)
- white sugar
- eggs
- all purpose flour
- baking powder
- baking soda
- salt
- whole milk yogurt
Tips
Storage: Store any leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for a couple of days, usually up to 5 days. If you wanted to make them last longer, store in the fridge. However they may start to dry out in the fridge, so for best consistency, I would recommend they be kept out on the counter.
Freezing. These muffins keep very well in the freezer. All you need to do is place cooled muffins in a large freezer bag, and freeze for up to 3 months.
Substitutes for yogurt. Of course you can make these into Greek yogurt muffins by adding substituting whatever kinds of Greek yogurt you like for the whole milk yogurt. I prefer plain Greek yogurt, but vanilla is great as well. Alternatively, you can use sour cream.
Add in your favorite mix-ins. To make these even more chocolatey, add in some chocolate chips, or some additional teaspoons of Nutella to swirl into the top of the batter. You could also add in some of your favorite nuts to give these muffins additional crunch.
