Banana Nutella Loaf

October 30, 2017 By Amy 6 Comments

Banana Nutella Loaf - The classic banana bread with a chocolate spread twist.

Confession time… I’m not a big fan of Nutella. I know, shock-horror – a major chocoholic like myself, it doesn’t make sense. Don’t get me wrong, I will eat it when it’s part of recipe but I’m not a eating-it-from-the-jar kind of girl. That being said, I can appreciate the combo of Nutella and bananas, especially since my youngest, David, has recently taken a loving to “Butella”. Granny had mentioned this combo of Nutella in Banana Loaf and it seemed like the perfect treat for David.

Using our classic Banana Loaf recipe this is a really simple adaption that not only makes for an even tastier treat, it also gives the loaf a beautiful marbled finish. And as with any banana bakes, the riper your bananas, the tastier and more moist your finished product will be! What better way can you think to use up any black-spotted bananas than a Banana Nutella Loaf?

Ingredients 

  • 2 Bananas
  • 140 g Caster Sugar
  • 55 g Butter/Margarine
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 170 g Self-raising Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 4 tbsp Nutella

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 190°c (170°c for a fan-assisted oven) and grease & line a 2lb Loaf Tin with grease-proof paper.
  • In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork. Add the sugar, butter/margarine, egg & vanilla extract and mix until combined.
  • Gradually add the flour and baking powder, mixing until all combined.
  • Pour half the batter into your pre-lined loaf tin and smooth into the corners.
  • Warm your Nutella in the microwave for about 10-20 second to soften it slightly. Drizzle a couple of spoonfuls over the batter in the loaf tin before adding the remaining batter on top.
  • Drizzle the remaining Nutella to the top of your loaf before stirring the batter with a skewer to create the marbled affect.
  • Bake in your pre-heated oven for 40 minutes until golden on top. Leave to cool in the loaf tin and serve in slices.

    Hi,
    I really would love to try this recipe, but do you know how it would turn out if I replaced the egg with flaxseed?
    I love baking but always struggle to find good recipes without eggs, and some do not work as well with a flax substitute!
    Thank you.
