Nicky’s Notes

A woman with long brown hair and a black top smiles at the camera, sitting indoors with a brick wall and some greenery in the background.

My absolute favorite banana bread recipe and the primary recipe I consider once I discover these spotty bananas lurking within the fruit bowl.

I’ve a secret jar of Nutella hidden away (from my 16-year-old-could-eat-a-whole-jar-in-one-go son) purely for the aim of creating this banana bread when the craving hits.

Additionally, does anybody else have about 20 of these little Nutella jars in your glass cabinet? They make good water glasses!
I believe the 200g measurement is barely obtainable within the UK, however they’re PERFECT! I believe all jams/jellies and nut spreads ought to are available in glass jars that may be reused as drinks glasses.

Why do I believe you’ll love this banana bread?

It’s completely gentle and fluffy, with sufficient Nutella that you may really correctly style it.
Even a few family and friends members who aren’t eager on common banana bread LOVE this model.
It retains for as much as 3 days a room temp, and it freezes nicely too!

This recipe is tailored from Broma Bakery’s recipe with just some little changes.

Recipe Ideas

Heat the Nutella solely till it loosens sufficient to drizzle. It shouldn’t be sizzling or fully runny. Round 15–20 seconds within the microwave is often lots.
As soon as the flour has been added, fold solely till no dry streaks stay. Overmixing could make banana bread agency or rubbery.
Take the Nutella drizzle proper to the sides so the outer slices get their justifiable share too. No person needs the disappointing, Nutella-less finish piece.
Swirl with a knife utilizing just some unfastened actions. An excessive amount of swirling will mix the Nutella into the batter quite than leaving outlined ribbons.
