Marbled Nutella Banana Bread
A friend who knows how much I love Nutella sent me a link to Nutella Banana bread. Not this recipe but a similar one, and since she did I didn't stop thinking about baking a loaf myself until I actually set about doing it.
I like this marbled version because it just looks so pretty. It came out moist with a great balance between banana and Nutella. And bananas and Nutella are just made to go together!

Ingredients
2 1/3 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups ripe bananas (3 bananas)
6 tablespoons butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1/2 cup Nutella
Directions
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 9 inch loaf pan with cooking spray. In a medium mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large mixing bowl, using a a mixer on medium speed (I used my KitchenAid mixer on medium) beat together banana, butter, both sugars, and vanilla until creamy and combined, about 2 minutes. Beat in eggs until well combined. Reduce mixer to low speed and beat in flour mixture until just combined. Divide 1/2 of the batter in to a medium bowl; stir in Nutella until combined.
Alternate spoonfuls of batter into the loaf pan until all of the batter is used up. Swirl batter gently with a knife - not too much!
Bake 1 hour or until well risen and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.

ReplyDeleteI love love banana chocolate combo :) I keep seeing similar recipes, I'm so tempted to try my own!
ReplyDeleteUmmmm yum!!! I thought my favorite combo was banana and peanut butter but I think this might top it!
ReplyDeleteI've been on a major Nutella kick too lately! This looks sinfulllll.
ReplyDeleteThis looks fantastic! Can't wait to try it out. After all, if it's Nutella, it's for me!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't sure when to put the eggs in because it didn't mention in the recipe instructions, so I added it in along with the banana, butter, sugar, and vanilla ;) It did turn out nice!
ReplyDeleteThank you for pointing that out to me, I just fixed it!
