Nutella Popsicles

Ingredients

2-3 tbsp Nutella
80ml whipping cream
250ml whole milk

Nutella Banana Bread

Ingredients

250g all-purpose flour
115g unsalted butter (room temperature)
150g light or dark brown sugar
80g natural unsweetened yogurt or greek yogurt
2 large eggs (room temperature)
1 tsp baking soda
½ tsp cinnamon powder
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
3-4 large ripe bananas mashed (400 grams)
3-4 tablespoons Nutella

Method

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit)
Prepare a baking tray by greasing the inside and then dusting with flour
In a large mixing bowl combine flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and mix well
In a separate bowl add unsalted butter and brown sugar and mix until smooth
Add the eggs to the butter mixture and mix well
Add the vanilla extract, mashed bananas, and yogurt and whisk briskly for 1-2 minutes or until there are no lumps.
Add half of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix well, add the remaining flour mixture and mix well.
Add 1-2 tablespoons of Nutella to the mixture and stir 2-3 times so the Nutella swirls. Try not to mix it too much after adding Nutella in order to keep the swirl pattern.
Pour the mixture into the baking tray adding 2 more tablespoons of Nutella to the top and with a fork or knife make swirl patterns on the top.
Place on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean when stuck in the middle.
