Strawberry Muffins with Nutella

Strawberry Nutella Muffins – light and fluffy strawberry muffins stuffed with Nutella.  A muffin recipe that is sure to become a family favorite!

Everyone in my family loves Nutella, so anytime I can incorporate it into a baked good, I know I’ll have an instant winner. These muffins definitely fell into that category. I should have made a double batch, because even though I served them with fruit and scrambled eggs, everyone was asking for more!

I found the recipe for these strawberry muffins at Two Peas and Their Pod a few months ago, and I finally got around to making them. I am so glad I did! Think chocolate covered strawberries in muffin form. Serious yummy-ness going on people!

It is so fun to serve these tasty muffins and see people’s reaction when they bite into that decadent pocket of nutella. Who doesn’t love a gooey chocolate surprise? We definitely like them best served warm so the Nutella is oozing out.
