Eggless Nutella Cupcakes

If you’ve only enjoyed Nutella on toast or as a dessert topping, you’ll be amazed by this eggless cupcake recipe, which mixes the Nutella into the batter to create a smooth, creamy texture. The recipe calls for milk, but you can easily substitute almond or soy milk to lower the fat content. Unfortunately, Nutella itself contains a small quantity of skim milk, so it isn’t suitable for vegans, but for vegetarians who avoid eggs, this will hit the spot!

Important tip for baking: Make sure all wet ingredients (butter, milk, eggs if used in the recipe) are room temperature to ensure easy blending.

This is a longer video, as the chef shares in detail exactly how to create this delicious dessert. Enjoy!
