Espresso Crunch Muffins

Description

Like a chocolate covered espresso bean… in muffin form. I made these extra healthy, but feel free to substitute white flour, regular sugar, canola oil and regular chocolate chips. I won’t be offended!

Ingredients

Preparation

Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.

Dissolve the espresso powder directly into the espresso and let it cool. Add to the wet ingredients.

Gently mix dry and wet ingredients, being careful not to overmix. (This over-develops the gluten and makes for a tougher muffin.)

Fold in hazelnuts and chocolate chips. Bake in muffin cups at 350 degrees for 15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out dry. This makes about twelve muffins.
