Nothing smells better than the smell of Homemade Nutella Swirl Banana Bread baking in the oven. We love making this bread for breakfast. The kids even enjoy eating it as an after-dinner snack.

So if you have some bananas that are well past their eating prime, this is a great recipe for you to try. While regular old banana bread is delicious on its own, you can turn it up a notch by swirling in some of your favorite Nutella.

Slicing this bread to serve with a little butter on top or slathered in your favorite jam – either way is equally delicious. My pre-teens will eat their way through this bread in just a matter of days. I am lucky if I can get a few slices. So my advice, be the one to first cut into the bread.

Ingredients Needed

Please note that a full list of ingredients and a printable version of this recipe is available below.

• Melted butter – Butter adds richness and flavor to the Nutella Bread. It also contributes to a tender texture. When melted and incorporated into the dough, it helps create a soft and moist interior.
• Eggs – Room-temperature eggs ensure that all ingredients blend together well. When cold from the fridge, the protein is “tighter” and doesn’t often blend into the batter with ease.
• All-purpose flour – This is the primary ingredient that gives the bread structure. It helps provide the right texture and chewiness.
• Bananas – You will want to use ripe bananas. Over-ripe bananas work well, too. They will increase the sweetness of this bread.
• Nutella -The star ingredient! Nutella is an Italian hazelnut spread that brings a nutty chocolate flavor to this bread. I have tried both name brands and the Aldi version, and I can say both come out delish.

How To Make This Nutella Swirl Banana Bread

STEP ONE: First, you will need to position a rack in the center of the oven. Then preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare your bread pan by greasing or spraying it with baking spray.

STEP TWO: Now, in a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, eggs, and sugar. Once mixed well, fold in the flour and baking soda until the batter is smooth.

STEP THREE: In the same bowl, fold in the mushy bananas. They should be relatively easy to mix in.

STEP FOUR: Add 1/2 of the batter to a greased bread pan. Gently shake the pan to settle the batter and remove any trapped air bubbles.

STEP FIVE: Microwave 1/2 cup Nutella on high for 20 seconds in a small separate bowl. Then warm Nutella across the batter and swirl it in. Add remaining batter on top.  

STEP SIX: Spread the remaining Nutella across the top of the batter. Bake in the oven at 350° for 60 minutes. Using a toothpick, poke the loaf in the center to make sure the loaf is cooked throughout. Once done, let the bread rest to cool and enjoy.

How To Store Your Freshly Baked Bread

This bread can be made up 3 days ahead of time before serving. But must be eaten that day. I have also placed it in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Wrap in aluminum foil and store at room temperature or in an airtight container in the fridge.
