Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

Instructions
 

  • Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  • Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Blend Wet and Dry: Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Create Swirls: Scoop spoonfuls of batter into each muffin cup, filling them about halfway. Drop small dollops of peanut butter on top of the batter. Use a toothpick or a skewer to swirl the peanut butter into the batter, creating a marbled effect.
  • Bake: Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Cool and Enjoy: Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes:

  • Peanut butter consistency: Warm the peanut butter slightly to make swirling easier.
  • Creative additions: Experiment with chocolate chips, nuts, or even a sprinkle of sea salt on top.
  • Storage: Keep the muffins in an airtight container to maintain their freshness.
  • Serve with love: These muffins are a wonderful treat to share with loved ones over a warm cup of coffee or tea.
