Banana Muffins with Nutella Swirl

Banana Muffins with Nutella Swirl – soft and fluffy banana muffins with a nutella swirl on top! 

Today we’re going to talk about things I love about Texas.

Mostly because the post I just wrote about how Game of Thrones is so boring this season that I have to listen to recap podcasts because I can’t pay attention and how much I love Real Housewives of NY now that Bethenny is back was deleted when I had to restart my computer.

(Yes, that was one sentence. Sorry.)

I love Texas. Which I honestly didn’t expect to say because the forever long drive through Texas from New Mexico to Louisiana made me want to punch myself in the face repeatedly on our epic roadtrips last year.

But I love it.

Guys, I have a Whataburger right up the road. I could walk there. I haven’t lived near a Whataburger in years!

Also, In-n-Out.

The cacti have flowers.

My phone is filled with photos of dogs and cactus flowers.

The weather. It’s so warm. We’ve had the top off the Jeep pretty much every day since we got here! Plus! Flipflops all day, everyday.

And it rains! Like for real rain!

H-E-B.

Omgggg, you guys told me I was going to love H-E-B and I doubted you. I thought nothing could be better than Trader Joe’s.

I was wrong.

We’ll definitely be heading back to Colorado one day but for now, we’re really enjoying it here.

Banana Muffins with Nutella Swirl!

And completely unrelated, I made Banana Muffins with Nutella Swirl!

Funnily enough, I’ve been craving Nutella ever since my husband posted an annoying article about how Nutella is poisoning people (with sugar and milk) on my Facebook profile last week.

These turned out so delicious. You’ve got your standard banana muffin on the bottom and then the Nutella swirl on top that sinks in in some places and stays gooey and Nutella-like in others. So good.
