Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup butter unsalted, melted
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 ½ cups mashed ripe bananas about 4-5 medium bananas
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¾ cup Nutella

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Stir together sugars and melted butter until combined. Mix in 2 eggs, vanilla and mashed bananas, stirring well.
  • Stir in flour, salt and baking soda just until no flour remains. Batter will be thick.
  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top.
  • Microwave the Nutella for about 20-25 seconds. Dollop ½ of the Nutella evenly over the batter. Use a knife to swirl the Nutella into the batter.
  • Pour the rest of the batter into the pan. Dollop the remaining Nutella over the top of the batter and swirl into the batter the same way as above.
  • Bake for about 50 minutes until a cake tester or toothpick comes out with moist crumbs remaining.
  • Let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool the rest of the way.

Notes

  • Wrap the banana bread in foil or plastic wrap and store on the counter for 3-4 days.
  • The loaf can also be frozen, wrapped in plastic wrap and foil for up to 3 months. Let it defrost in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
  • Peanut butter or other nut butters can be substituted for nutella if desired. Or omit the nutella for traditional banana bread.
