Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas

  • 1/2 cup Nutella

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan or round cake pan with parchment paper.

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

  • Add melted butter and sugar, mixing well until combined.

  • Beat in the eggs and vanilla extract until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.

  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, alternating with milk, mixing until just combined.

  • Fold in chocolate chips if using.

  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan.

  • Drop spoonfuls of Nutella over the batter and gently swirl with a knife to create a marble effect.

  • Bake for 40–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean.

  • Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best sweetness and flavor.Do not overmix the batter to keep the cake soft and tender.Swirl Nutella gently to create a beautiful marbled effect without blending it completely.Optional add-ins like walnuts or hazelnuts add extra texture.
