Mini banana breads with Nutella® hazelnut spread

INGREDIENTS for 10 servings
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 ripe bananas, mashed
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tbsp cornstarch
2 tsp baking powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 cup Nutella® hazelnut spread
1 tbsp confectioners’ sugar
METHOD

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour 6-cup (3 x 1 1/2-inch) mini-loaf tin or silicone mold.
Beat butter with sugar until light and fluffy.

Smash banana using a fork.

Stir in bananas and eggs.

In separate bowl, sift together flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt; stir into banana mixture until combined.

Pour batter evenly into mini-loaf tin.
Bake for about 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let cool slightly. Unmold and transfer to rack; let cool completely.

Split each loaf in half lengthwise. Spread each bottom half with 1 tbsp Nutella® hazelnut spread; cap with tops. Dust with confectioners’ sugar; pipe about 1 tsp Nutella® hazelnut spread down along center of each loaf.
Tip: If the banana bread results are not flat on both sides, even up the surface by removing a thin slice with a knife.
