Do you ever buy ingredients for one thing and they end up hanging around forever? That was the case with me and my jar of Nutella - I bought it for a Dorie recipe, and months later, it was still in the pantry cupboard, staring at me accusingly.
However, there was a feature in the newspaper on tea loaves this week, sourced from various blogs, and lo and behold, what did I spy but Nutella Banana Bread - perfect! Something that sounded delicious that I could use up my Nutella making, and practical enough to transport to work without a hitch.
The recipe for the Nutella Banana Bread comes from Chef in Training - you can find it here.
This bread is very simple to make, but make sure you grease your cake tin well - unfortunately the chocolate batter stuck a little, and I ended up tearing my cake. No matter - I glued it back together with chocolate icing:
Accordingly, if chocolate and banana float your boat, or you just want to use up your Nutella, like me, you could do much worse than give this bread a go.
