Preparation

  • In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.

  • Add the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Sprinkle baking soda and salt over the mixture, and stir in.
  • Slowly add the all-purpose flour and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender texture.

Baking

  • Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Spoon half of the Nutella over the batter and use a knife to swirl it gently.
  • Add the remaining batter on top and finish with the rest of the Nutella, swirling again as desired.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
