Description

This Nutella Swirl Bread is a soft and moist vanilla-flavored loaf, beautifully swirled with rich, chocolate-hazelnut Nutella. It’s both visually stunning and deliciously sweet, making it an ideal choice for breakfast or dessert.


Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup sugar
  • 1½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Additional

  • ½ cup Nutella, warmed slightly for easier swirling


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready when your batter is mixed.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, beat together the milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined to form a smooth batter. Avoid overmixing to keep the loaf tender.
  5. Prepare for Swirling: Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan. Spoon dollops of warmed Nutella on top of the batter.
  6. Swirl Nutella: Using a knife or skewer, gently swirl the Nutella into the batter to create a marbled effect throughout the loaf without fully mixing it in.
  7. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 55 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center—it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Warming the Nutella slightly makes it easier to swirl evenly through the batter.
  • For added texture and flavor, sprinkle chopped hazelnuts into the batter or on top before baking.
  • Make sure not to overmix the batter after adding the flour to keep the bread soft and tender.
