How to Make Almond Chocolate Marble Muffins

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt.
3. Stir in 1 cup slivered almonds.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 2 large eggs.
5. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
6. In a small bowl, combine ½ of the batter with ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
7. Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of plain batter into each muffin cup.
8. Top with 2 tablespoons of chocolate batter.
9. Gently swirl the batters together with a knife or toothpick for a marble effect.
10. Sprinkle with extra slivered almonds.
11. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
12. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
13. Serve warm, dusted with powdered sugar (optional).
