I love Nutella, like, it’s a bit of a problem. I have been known to sneak a spoonful into the freezer, and then eat it just like that. (If you like the sound of that, 10 minutes does the trick!)

But if I have to eat Nutella any other way, this is my absolute favourite. Baked, not fried, these cinnamon sugar donut muffins are a gem by themselves, but once you add in that hazelnut spread, it turns it into something pretty amazing! I bake these at night, and then just warm them up in the microwave for 15 -20 seconds before serving as a yummy breakfast.
