A muffin for your Monday
Day 3 of the Countdown to A Love Story brings these Nutella Swirl Banana Muffins.
Nutella is probably my favorite nut butter. I mean, it does count as a nut butter, right?
These muffins have just the right balance of banana in them. I know many people really don’t like the taste of bananas in baked goods, but trust me, if you’re one of those people, you really can’t miss out on these muffins. They’re just that good.
Like I will gladly eat a muffin with a center of Nutella.
