- 1 teaspoon hazelnut extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Place bananas on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until dark brown in color.
Step 2
Meanwhile melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, for 4 minutes, swirling to create a speckled, nutty brown butter. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
Stir melted butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl to combine. Add eggs one at a time, fully incorporating between additions. Add hazelnut extract and mix to combine.
Step 4
Whisk flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Step 5
Peel bananas and place into a small bowl. Mash bananas with a fork or potato masher, then add buttermilk and stir to combine.
Step 6
Slowly add flour mixture and banana mixture to wet ingredients, alternating all have been incorporated. Stir until just combined.
Step 7
Line a 9x5" loaf pan with parchment paper and some nonstick cooking spray or butter. Pour batter into the loaf pan.
Step 8
Melt Nutella in the microwave for 10 seconds. Mix and then heat for another 15 until very hot and pourable. Immediately drizzle melted Nutella all over the batter. Using a butter knife, swirl Nutella into batter.
Step 9
Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Allow to cool completely before slicing.
