Banana Bread with Nutella Recipe
Every night the husband and I have fruit of some kind as dessert. When I can get nice, slightly green bananas they are my choice. I love a banana just on the edge of ripe. Once it gets too far they are too sweet for me. If they pass the point of no return I pop them in the freezer to use for baking. I love having the option of always having bananas in the freezer when I am in the mood to bake. This banana bread with Nutella recipe came about on a day when I was playing in the kitchen.

How Was the Banana Bread with Nutella?
Very tasty. It’s a bit sweet so you can’t eat too much of it at once but in my opinion it’s worth the splurge. I couldn’t eat a big piece but I did enjoy the treat. Both flavors came through quite well and the bread is quite moist.
It’s holding very well and we are still enjoying it several days later.
