Ingredients
- 2 cup all purpose (plain) flour ((250 grams))
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar ((100 grams))
- 1/4 cup brown sugar ((55 grams) )
- 1 tsp baking soda (not baking powder)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 very ripe large bananas (if small use (3 or 4) bananas)
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter ((1 stick/4 ounces/ 115 grams)- melted)
- 1/2 cup whole milk ((120 mls))
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup Nutella ((200 grams))
Instructions
- 1
Lightly grease a 9x5 inch (23x13cm) loaf pan the line with non-stick parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC).
- 2
Whisk (or sieve) together flour, sugars, baking soda, cinnamon, salt.
- 3
Mash bananas well.
- 4
Whisk eggs, melted butter, milk and vanilla.
- 5
Stir wet ingredients and mashed bananas into dry ingredients. Don’t overmix.
- 6
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- 7
Warm the nutella in the microwave for 20 seconds. Dollop half Nutella onto the batter in the loaf pan.
- 8
Dollop on remaining batter followed by remaining Nutella. Swirl the batter and the Nutella with a knife until just swirling together - don’t completely mix the Nutella in.
- 9
Bake for 45-50 minutes. To test if it’s ready, stick a skewer or toothpick into the bread and when removed there will be no batter clinging to it. There may be a few crumbs - that’s fine.

Cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then tip it out gently onto a wire rack to cool completely (or eat warm!)
