Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 3 to 4 very ripe bananas
  • 1/2 cup caster sugar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3/4 milk
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup Nutella, at room temperature

Instructions

  • Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a small bowl, combine the milk and lemon juice and set aside to sour.
  • Grease a 9x5 loaf pan and preheat the oven to 175 C.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mash the bananas well. Add the sugar and oil and mix well.
  • Add the soured milk and vanilla and mix till combined.
  • Fold in the flour mixture until just combined, do not over-mix. The batter will be thick but spreadable. If there are still some stubborn flour lumps, run a hand mixer through the batter for a few seconds.
  • Spoon half the batter into the loaf tin and smoothen the top. Now drop small spoonfuls of Nutella all over the surface, leaving a little space between each dollop. It doesn't have to be perfect, but remember to save about half the Nutella for the top.
  • Using a toothpick, gently 'swirl' the Nutella through the batter. Spread the remaining batter on top, smoothen the top and then repeat the swirls with the remaining Nutella.
  • Bake for 50 mins to 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs, but no wet batter. Cover the top loosely with foil in the last 20 minutes of baking if the top is browning too quickly.
  • Allow the cake to cool before slicing. It tastes best at room temperature while the Nutella is still a little gooey. Happy eating!
