Crumble Nutella Muffins are deliciously indulgent treats…a shell of crispy and crumbly pastry enclosing a creamy and soft hazelnut cream filling.
Crumble muffins are a great alternative to the classic crumb cake, ideal for a buffet, a birthday, or simply as a dessert at the end of the meal and for a snack.
To prepare them, I used silicone muffin cups, but you can use disposable aluminum ones. In that case, you will need to butter and breadcrumb the molds.
