Equipment
- 1 mixing bowl
- 1 loaf pan (9×5 inches)
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Oven
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas mashed
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 1/3 cup melted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 large egg beaten
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- Optional: chopped walnuts or chocolate chips
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray to ensure easy removal after baking.
Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients
- In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the melted butter, Nutella, vanilla extract, and the beaten egg. Mix everything together until well combined.
Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. This step ensures even distribution of the baking soda throughout the bread.
Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the banana-Nutella mixture. Stir until just combined; be careful not to overmix. If you’re using walnuts or chocolate chips, fold them in now.
Step 5: Pour into Loaf Pan
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top if necessary. If you want a marbled effect, swirl a little extra Nutella on top with a knife.
Step 6: Bake
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Keep an eye on it; baking times may vary slightly depending on your oven.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
- Once done, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
