Today, as we’re celebrating 1000 Facebook Likes, I decided to
do something different and hence came up with the idea to do a Step-by-Step
Pictorial Recipe. Aren’t you excited? I’m sure you are, I’m too :D
So here goes my First step-by-step pictorial recipe of the
Blog “The Banella Bread with cream cheese swirl” Did the name Banella just
confuse you? No worries it’s my name for Banana+Nutella = Banella (aww… isn’t
that cute J ).
This is so delicious and so so easy to make.
Come on Foodies, grab your tools, IT’S BAKING TIME!
First things first, Preheat oven to 180° C or 350° F. Grease
a 9” x 5” loaf pan with butter and line it with parchment paper
Mash the bananas using a potato masher or with the back of
the spoon. Don’t mash completely let it have some small lumps in it.
Sift together flour, salt and baking soda in a bowl. In a separate
bowl combine sugar and butter using a beater, until smooth. Add egg to it,
beating after every addition.
Add mashed bananas to it then milk and vanilla essence and mix to combine.
Combine all the dry ingredients with the sugar-butter mixture, until
smooth.
In a microwave safe bowl put in Nutella and microwave for
about 15 seconds. Mix it with a spoon so that its softened. In a separate bowl,
take one cup banana bread batter add Nutella to it. This is now Nutella batter
In a bowl combine cream cheese and egg until smooth.
Carefully add the three batters prepared into the pan. First
the banana batter, then Nutella batter, then cream cheese. Give it a nice swirl
with the back of the spoon. Then again cover with the banana batter and Nutella
batter until finished.
Swirl on the top of the batter and bake it for 50 to 60
minutes or until a tooth pick inserted comes out clean
Allow it to cool in the pan for 15 minutes (This will allow
it to set). Remove and allow to cool on wire rack for 10 minutes.
Slice it up and serve while it is still warm. Serve it with
some melted Nutella.
