life without nutella is well....just not worth living in my opinion. nutella is definitely one of those things i cannot live without. i used to work in a school in singapore with a great bunch of girls who were all nutella-addicts. it was so great...when we'd have breaks they'd go around with the nutella jar and a loaf of bread and let everyone get their fix.so my family are still talking about that amazing banana bread that i've been making recently so i wanted to make some last night to have ready for Sunday morning. and of course, the full nutella jar sitting in the cupboard came to mind...i mean nutella jars are just not meant to be full EVER (except of course when they are on the supermarket shelf!)
so i used the avoca banana bread recipe you can find here except this time just swirled nutella through the batter and then because i had some left, drizzled butterscotch over the top. totally decadent! i mean totally, but gosh, just so good. the nutella was fabulous with that nutty chocolate flavour and completely complemented the bananas and pecans.
it was just such a great start to Sunday morning!

What a yummylicious idea! And since chocolate and bananas work pretty well together I'm pretty sure Nutella and bananas make an unbeatable paring :)
hi lore, it DID make an unbeatable pairing! the bread didn't last very long...i've been ordered to make sure nutella makes a regular appearance in my banana bread!

Your site gave the devil in my heart big power. The devil said to me. "Eat this thing which I was sweet, and seemed to be delicious" As a result, I lost a fight with the devil. I was dieting so.....

Nutella and banana bread... pure genious! And totally agree that life is not worth living without nutella.
Nutty Nutella
hmm i have nutella in the pantry, and bananas ripening on the counter. bread or cupcakes....hehee.
NUTELLA! Wow that looks like one delicious nutella fix. We must be sister spirits. I adore the stuff.
This is a great idea! It looks so moist. I like the texture in the bread. I love it when a dessert pretty much satisfies all the senses, this one has all the bases covered...I bet it smelled amazing as it baked in the oven :)!
Wow I think you found the perfect combo!! Great recipe:)
What a great idea to combine banana bread and Nutella! Definitely putting on my list of things to try!
