Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line muffin pans with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  3. In a stand mixer bowl, mash together 6 ripe bananas until smooth. Add ½ cup of melted butter, ½ cup of light brown sugar, ¼ cup of granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed for about 3 minutes until blended and fluffy.
  4. Gradually add dry mixture into wet banana mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full with the banana batter.
  6. Warm ½ cup of Nutella in the microwave for about 15 seconds, then dollop it on top of each muffin cup and swirl with a toothpick or knife.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes. Use a toothpick to check for doneness.
  8. Cool muffins in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
