Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour (250g)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ cup salted butter, melted
3-4 ripe bananas, peeled and mashed
½ cup brown sugar
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup Nutella

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x5 loaf pan with nonstick spray and line it with a piece of parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of your mixer, combine the butter, bananas, brown sugar, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Beat in medium speed for 3 minutes. Gently stir the flour mixture in until just combined.
Place the Nutella in a small microwave-safe bowl and warm for 30 seconds until thinned.
Pour half the batter into the pan. Spoon half the Nutella over the batter and swirl them together with a knife. Add the remaining batter to the pan, spoon the remaining Nutella over the top, and swirl them together with a knife.
Bake for 60-70 minutes until a toothpick is inserted in the center of the loaf and it comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool for 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Storage: Store any leftover slices of this Nutella banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. To reheat, place slices of banana bread in a toaster oven or on a baking sheet and warm at 350°F for about 5 minutes. Or you can microwave a slice for 10-15 seconds.
Freezing: This Nutella banana bread freezes well for up to 3 months. You can freeze the whole loaf or individual slices for easy reheating. If freezing the loaf, let thaw overnight on the counter at room temperature. Individual slices can be reheated in the microwave for 30-40 seconds without thawing first.
